		<description>Nitro, you mean do I have a link to the screen prints.  At this point, No, but I could easily post them if you would like proof of what I say.</description>

		<description>Hojneydog,

Do you have any proof/links/crossreferences to what you are talking about?

Are you just a false flag? Are you and IR in cahoots?

Just asking.</description>

		<description>ROFLMAO, wow.  I have pages of screen prints of you calling me every name in the book and you say I slander you?

And you have yet to prove on darn thing McBroom.  You can foam at the mouth all you want, but words don't prove anything. The proof must be tangible.</description>

		<description>P.S.  Jeff Fisher (NOT THE FOOTBALL COACH) has routing numbers of off shore accounts in regards to money funneled into over the Wellstone Crash.

His friend was killed by the Mossad over this.

Whats going to be very disturbing is if these account numbers match the offshore account number that provided me a spending spree.</description>

		<description>You call yourself a Vet? You are nothing more than a soldier for Minnesota Democrats Exposed!!!!!!!!!!!

For every hateful and slanderous remark out of you I get 30  emails telling me keep up the good work and as long as I continue to stay honest to We The People I will make a great Senator.

I've provided no substance?

Charley Shaw St. Paul Legal-Ledger has the numbers in regards to my prescription drug plan which again is the greatest plan ever created.

You say the FBI and CIA would just laugh at me?

 I've provided them with quite a few laughs I'm sure. This is no laughing matter though.

Then in another post you claim I'll be arrested?

PLEASE! If anything I'll be deputized BROOM KENNETH STAR WELLSTONE

Well Im done posting for awhile, Why do I feel you will post now for the sole purpose of LAST WORD!

You've kept me busy and GENERAL MICHAEL BRODKORB owes you a medal.

If you are all going to miss Broom being gone, you can still enjoy the postings of SEAN BROOM. Ban is now lifted.

Sean-I now know the meaning of what it means to be a stalker. Definition- HONEYDOG</description>

		<description>First off Broom, you created nothing.  You've been asked repeatedly for the details of this prescription plan, you've yet to give those.  You claim you have disclosed chapter 1.........yet it was nothing but empty words and totally with out real substance.  The WhiteBuffalo RX thing is only a way for you to rip off people.

LOL and the FBI and the CIA would do nothing but laugh at you.</description>

		<description>It still doesn't change the fact that I created the best prescription drug plan ever created.

It still doesn't change the fact that I will be solving my own case in regards to the Wellstone scenerio.

Should the FBI or CIA  want to assist me in my investigation, I would utilize their endless resourses and technology. Make no mistake about it though this is my case and I call the shots.

I think I've posted a nice piece of what I have so far.
I can't release everything because it is an on going investigation.

I would like to think you can appreciate that.</description>

		<description>Broom, I think you lie, yet again.

Also, why would you want to dedicate anything to the Celebuwhore?  I don't think there are to many people, liberal or conservative, who think Paris Hilton is appropriate for anything except for as a model of what not to act like.</description>

		<description>Too bad what you claim about Wellstone is false.

Not to mention, you are in it for the money, especially when it comes to the prescriptions.</description>

		<description>Nitro:

I never claimed I was going to win any awards for my website.

If you have firefox you can't even access it, let alone forever on dial up.

It will eventually be redone. In the meantime it is what it is.

I honestly feel that I should not have to bend over backwards in this campaign.

If what I'm saying about the prescription drugs and the Wellstone factor is true, Is it wrong to have my world delivered?</description>

		<description>Illegally importing drugs from Canada?

Gosh Wally she's right. I should be arrested by the F.B.I. immediately for this. It is illegal and must be stopped!!!

Maybe while getting booked if I rat out Tim Pawlenty for doing the same thing, I might get off easy.</description>

		<description>Do you all think I care if I don't get elected?

I am a candidate who will not back down to the drug companies.

I'm surely not doing this for the money. I've said I'll donate my salary to charity.

FOR THOSE REASON'S ALONE, YOU ALL SHOULD CARE I GET ELECTED

I am no longer a part of any on-line drug company.
I can't have any self serving intrests in public service work.

In addition to saving America's healthcare system and having a billion dollar party for all servicemen and women
I will be a candidate who will get congress to cut a check to Mark and David Wellstone for 100million dollars.

Kind of like a don't ask don't tell scenerio. JUST DO IT and feel good about it.

As I would for ANY of you, if you were involved in this scenerio.

Here's another print for your collection, ever so kind and loving Honeydog</description>

		<description>WhiteBuffaloRX is McBroom's website.  His so called prescription plan is one where HE makes money, and does it by illegally reimporting drugs from Canada!

And McBroom, I didn't attack you before that.  Your little tirade accusing me of being gay was out of the blue.  What you claim started it was ridiculous.  Saying you wouldn't vote for somebody isn't an attack.

Now if you want proof of attack, I've got scads of screen prints of you calling me every nasty name in the book.  LOL, and the best part is you foaming at the mouth over the fact that I'm not intimidated by juvenile behavior.</description>

		<description>IR

"So is that a start in proving you wrong Nitro?"

Nope, I'm talking about your shallow website and any cross references that you have, not stories.

But don't think I'm yelling or anything. You are the least of America's problems right now. There are some big fish to fry.

If you are legitimate, good luck in your cause. Big pharma gets a huge amount of taxpayer money with no competitive bidding, a gift from the righties, and they are raking in the money.

http://www.citizen.org/pressroom/release.cfm?ID=1733

For-profit health care should be competitive and fair to people who depend on their perscriptions to survive. What I see is the industry caring more about their share holders and CEOs.

I'll list one link from 2005, because UnitedHealth Groups' William McGuire is high up on that years list.

http://www.forbes.com/static/execpay2005/rank.html

Forest Labs, #4 is big pharma, same with #7 Caremark Rx. These collective CEO's had a 54% pay increase that year alone. These pay increases have happen year after year after year, and guess what? That money comes from somewhere. It's coming out of the pockets of sick people who need healthcare. Isn't that just dandy?

Just look at the Forbes article this week about how well the richest among us are doing.

"One billion dollars is no longer enough. The price of admission to this, the 25th anniversary edition of the Forbes 400, is $1.3 billion, up $300 million from last year. The collective net worth of the nation's mightiest plutocrats rose $290 billion to $1.54 trillion."

Are these mega rich folks interested in helping pay for the 250 million dollars or so per day in tax dollars we will have to pay for the Iraq war?

Nope. From what I've seen, they want to get their taxes reduced. Althought the top 1% pay less of a percentage of their income in taxes than the middle class, they want our children to pay for Bush's war-on-a-credit-card. They, apparently, are not interested in sacrificing their gold and riches to help the effort.

These issues are going to play a role in the election next year, because everyone who has to struggle to make ends meet in America is paying attention now. That, suddenly, is a whole lot of people.

Good luck to you, IR.....but I still think you're a false flag.</description>

<p>&#8220;So is that a start in proving you wrong Nitro?&#8221;</p>
<p>Nope, I&#8217;m talking about your shallow website and any cross references that you have, not stories.</p>
<p>But don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m yelling or anything. You are the least of America&#8217;s problems right now. There are some big fish to fry.</p>
<p>If you are legitimate, good luck in your cause. Big pharma gets a huge amount of taxpayer money with no competitive bidding, a gift from the righties, and they are raking in the money.</p>

<p>For-profit health care should be competitive and fair to people who depend on their perscriptions to survive. What I see is the industry caring more about their share holders and CEOs.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll list one link from 2005, because UnitedHealth Groups&#8217; William McGuire is high up on that years list.</p>

<p>Forest Labs, #4 is big pharma, same with #7 Caremark Rx. These collective CEO&#8217;s had a 54% pay increase that year alone. These pay increases have happen year after year after year, and guess what? That money comes from somewhere. It&#8217;s coming out of the pockets of sick people who need healthcare. Isn&#8217;t that just dandy?</p>

		<description>I've never attacked you 1st either Honeydog. I did create a screen name Honey Dog is Gay obviously knowing you guys would know it was me.

This was  done AFTER I tried to be nice to you over at MDE
You had a post to Mike B. stating how funny the Franken supporters looked at the fair.

I chimed in that I thought it was funny that some of them took off their Franken shirts and put on mine.

This offended you? You claimed "Well if they did that I'd never vote for you"

Thats were it started. What did I ever do to you 1st?

I admit I may have a potty mouth at times, but I am ALWAYS respectful and do not attack first.

Believe it or not I do like you, you are my fellow human being. We can agree to disagree</description>

		<description>I just told you what I had in Chapter One Honeydog.
There are still 9 more chapters...Holy crap lay off haven't I been through enough?

Instead of wasting time and having the F.B.I. investigate this, It would be much more fun to have me solve my own case.

All it would take is congress to allow me to do this.

I got nothing but respect for the F.B.I. I will say this though- There are agents that will die to find out the truth and there are agents that would die to protect it.</description>
