I would love to see Silver crash and burn. To bad it will never happen because he is in the pockets of some wealthy people/businesses (The Dolans are the first ones that pop into my mind) They will spend alot of money to make sure he isn’t voted out.

If Silver’s lying, and there could have been the votes for it in the Assembly, then where are the proponents? It should be a simple matter for his primary challengers or for a local paper to round up a large fraction of the 76 Assembly members who would’ve voted for it.

If Silver’s sin is that he didn’t fight for CP hard enough, doesn’t it mean Bloomberg deserves credit for fighting for CP the best he could?

Boris, two guys who served decades apart hardly make a trend. Did you find anything evil about Abe Koch? He’s Jewish too.

Why are Jews with political power in New York so evil? Silver, like Robert Moses, gives the rest of the Jews a bad name.

Silver is a lying bastard.
