More than one journalist has uncovered corrupt connections between the Bush Family, psychiatry, and Eli Lilly & Company, the giant pharmaceutical corporation.

While previous Lillygates have been more colorful, Lilly's soaking state Medicaid programs with Zyprexa, its blockbuster, antipsychotic drug may pack the greatest financial wallop.

Zyprexa grossed $4.28 billion worldwide in 2003, accounting for slightly more than one-third of Lilly's total sales.

In the United States in 2003, Zyprexa grossed $2.63 billion, 70 percent of that attributable to government agencies, mostly Medicaid.

Historically, the exposure of any single Lilly machination, though sometimes disrupting it, has not weakened the Bush-Psychiatry-Lilly relationship. In the last decade, some of the more widely reported Eli Lilly intrigues include:

*Influencing the Homeland Security Act to protect itself from lawsuits

*Accessing confidential patient records for a Prozac sample mailing
Rigging the Wesbecker Prozac-violence trial

A sample of those who have been on the Eli Lilly payroll includes:

*Former President George Herbert Walker Bush (one-time member of the Eli Lilly board of directors)

*Former CEO of Enron, Ken Lay (one-time member of the Eli Lilly board of directors)

*George W.
