Payback time for pharmacists

Just one question: Do you think this could have anything to do with Congressman Green's opposition to allowing the reimportation of safe, affordable medicine from Canada -- something Gov. Jim Doyle championed nationally? Of course, that cuts into local pharmacy profits.

The big drug companies certainly like Green. Green has taken $60,837 in campaign contributions from pharmaceutical company PACs, lobbyists and employees.

And now this:
