Cong. Nicky "Pockets" Mavroules, D-Mass, an ultra-liberal nuclear-freeze proponent who later went to prison for, as the federal indictment put it, "operating his Congressional office as a racketeering enterprise." Among his crimes: receiving free Buicks from a shady dealer in his district named Bob Brest. Another recipient of a free Bob Brest Buick: Sen. John F'in Kerry. He claimed his non-payment was "an oversight" and wrote a check. Unlike Nicky Pockets, Kerry was not indicted.
SURE, John, we believe you.
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This crook thinks he should be Prez?
The black guy with the moustache behind Kerry is now-deceased state senator Royal Bolling, D-Roxbury, who resumed his political career after serving a brief stretch at Danbury for income-tax evasion. Bolling defeated the incumbent, Bill Owens, another ex-con who had done time in state prison for assaulting a motorist with a tire iron. The white guy with his hand out is the then-police commissioner of the City of Boston, whose brother was a gangster who was shot in a confrontation with a serial killer named Whitey Bulger whose brother was the president of the Mass. State Senate in which all of these felons served.
Is it a requirement in Mass that to run for office you either have to have been jailed or should have been?
The junior senator huddles with, on the left, state senator B. Joseph Tully, later the city manager of Lowell. Tully was convicted in 1988 of extortion and mail fraud. Tully was succeeded in the Senate by Paul Sheehy, an ex-con who did time for bank fraud.
Here we go again. |
