Sheldon Silver New York Assemblyman and Culinary Union puppet arrested for corruption

[efalk1322]

The man responsible for keeping MMA out of NY just got arrested folks. He's been charged with 5 criminal counts of corruption which include taking bribes from organizations such as the culinary union. Maybe this is why Dana said MMA in NY is closer than you think. Great day for New Yorkers like myself.

Nice.

Fuck all Union-pocketed politician tools.

Has it been explicitly stated that he took money from the culinary union? I didn't see it in that short article.

Now an MMA legalization bill might actually reach the assembly floor for a vote instead of being blocked by this tool.

The Fertitas called a meeting of the 5 families of New York. They know how to frame someone

Not in the article, but this is well known.

Is politician-bashign against rules? If not, good, fuck him.

Where's that video clip of animated Dana doing his evil laugh?

 

[DeathByBeer]

Hope he gets anally probed in the holding cell some time soon.

I guess the Culinary Union was willing to give Sheldon a larger backroom bonus than Dana was prepared to.
