For 12 years, Sheldon Silver stood up to the Republican juggernaut of Pataki and Bruno two essentially right wing and corrupt politicos. He helped save education, health care, transportation, and help for urban centers of the state like New York City. So he doesn't disclose his income from his law firm which is not required by law...if it were law, he would disclose it. Bottom line is he held the damage the fundamentalist Republicans who were in bed with Mike Long & Company would do to all New Yorkers especially the kids and elderly. It is sickening that so called Democrats (reformers and fakers) are now trying to sell him out. After 12 years of having every initiative of the Assembly killed by our evil monarch Pataki (and his dastardly wizard Gargano) , it will be nice to give him a chance to show his stuff with an ally and good guy Governor like Spitzer, who by the way Silver supported from day one of his campaign. Let's see some loyalty from all those who were served so well by the Speaker.
