Hillary Spurns Top N.Y. Democrats

Follows Conneticut Senator on Pollard

NY State Assemblyman Sam Colman to Senator Lieberman: "...[Mrs. Clinton] is not taking a position [on Pollard]...because [she claims that you], Senator Lieberman, a Jew, [are] against his release... I feel very strongly that you owe me and the entire Jewish community an explanation..." [See the full text of the letter.]

New Yorkers supporting the release of Jonathan Pollard include:

• Senator Charles Schumer
• Speaker of the House Sheldon Silver
• Public Advocate Mark Green
• City Comptroller Alan Hevesi
• NY City Council President Peter Vallone
• The New York City Council

She has chosen instead to adopt Connecticut Senator Lieberman's unjustified anti-Pollard stance.

Mrs. Clinton's actions call into question the genuineness of her concern for the expressed will of New Yorkers, and raise serious concerns about her professional integrity.
