Luck of the Irish may not apply to Brian

From the NY Post:

Crooked ex-pol Brian McLaughlin may get hammered harder than he expected.

Manhattan federal Judge Richard Sullivan yesterday warned he's considering an "upward departure" from sentencing guidelines that recommend eight to 10 years behind bars for the former labor leader and ex-Democratic assemblyman from Queens.

McLaughlin faces charges including racketeering that could send him away for 50 years.

Well...with a judge named Sullivan handing down his sentence...
Brian can't complain about any anti Irish prejudice.

But now that they've caught the "big fish" let's see some of those little ones in the tank too!

This is getting better than those daytime "soaps"!

You think the Staviskys will have their own program running tomorrow?

Stay tuned ladies and gents...but now a word from our sponsor "The Parkside Group"!

That smart judge is squeezin' Brian's nuts a little harder because the union thug is holding out on giving up some of his big political accomplices' names.

As soon as Brian complies by singing those high notes
the bench will cut some years off his sentence.

C'mon Brian let's hear it in the key of "C" major!

Don't-ya-luv-it!

Geez...
almost the same hairdo (but a little thinner) and pose as the "dapper don" Gotti!

I wonder if Brian was ever a junior "Westie".

Nah...not enough balls...just a cheap extortionist!

Think about the potential diversionary tactic of a judge imposing this long prison term.

All of the other perps get off free while we're all busy jumping for joy that "biggie" Brian got nailed.

Another carefully orchestrated smokescreen conducted by the clubhouse?

Perhaps!

Their tentacles reach everywhere!

And just who are all those other vermin that didn't get sentenced (or even indicted) that are still running around town nibbling away at the cheese (our tax money) h-m-m-m ?

Their tentacles may reach everywhere, but, it's McLaughlin's testicles that are about to be hammered.

He will be a soprano pronto!

Castrati are lovely singers. Watch out all you lowlifes who cavorted with him.

And a one and a two and a.... Come on Brian -- give us a song. Belt out a big one. Your ship is sinking. Time to drag the rest of the rats down with you to drown together. I hope the judge keeps his promise and adds on lots of extra time. Watch Brian sing. This truly is better than a soap opera. Hopefully this will give the voters ammunition on Election Day.

Maybe Carolyn Daly could give the judge a blowjob and get Brain off. Then again, that may make the judge give McGlauhlin the death penalty.

You must mean Lamont Cranston. (Definitely not Ralph Kramden.)
