Well, you are a hater. Trying to hate two at once too. Hate Guiliani and Pollard. Spics and Jews. Otherwise there’s ZERO to the argument for holding Pollard longer. The facts are that he spied for an an ally, and his time already served — mostly in solitary, iirc — is far harder than ANY comparable case.

I believe this poster has gone over the line.

I tried to be as polite as I could be in the presence of personal attacks,
but this is offensive and unwarranted.

Ted Olson & Pollard

"Olson had also gained notability by acting as attorney for convicted spy Jonathan Pollard while he was in private practice. Olson had appealed to United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit claiming that during Pollard's trial, the life sentence he received was in violation of the plea bargain agreement, which had specifically taken life off the table. Olson also argued that in violation of said plea bargain, that was grounds for a mistrial. The Court of Appeals, in a panel of three judges, voted 2-1 that no grounds existed for a mistrial. Future Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg cast the deciding vote against Pollard's motion."
