The Soundview Healthcare Network is a victim of racsim, political chicanery and vengeance at the hands of the administration of Governor Andrew Cuomo. Former senate president Pedro Espada, Jr., is the victim of a political vendetta motivated by deep hatred by Gov. Cuomo toward Mr. Espada because as a senator Espada did not want to overthrow then-Governor Paterson the way Cuomo wanted. Too bad Espada did not keep the Emails he got from Cuomo's office from the time Andrew Cuomo was looking for Paterson to be toppled .
Mr. Espada's troubles are similar to those of French general Alfred Dreyfus who in the late 19th Century, was a victim of racism, and was also framed for being honest, and for being a French Jew in a Nation that embodied blind faith to the Pope's religion, and who practiced outright bigotry to the extreme.
France jailed General Dreyfus on doctored evidence, and framed him outright just like New York's Governor has done to Mr. Espada. In the time of General Dreyfus there were writers and journalists of true courage who did not go along to get along like most journalists of this days and age choose to do, fearing more for their jobs and perceived status of privilege, than for honesty and principle. General Dreyfus had the backing of Emile Zola, the great prolific writer-journalist who accused the French government of framing General Dreyfus. Mr. Espada has been framed by his political enemies much the same way the late U.S Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska was framed by the Justice Department of the George W. Bush Administration. Deep hatred for Senator Stevens by President Bush motivated the vendetta launched against Senator Stevens, who was wrongfully convicted of crimes he did not commit, but thankfully, when Eric Holder became U.S. Attorney General, he corrected the Government's misguided and criminal witch hunt toward Mr. Stevens, and exonerated him, dismissed the charges against Ted Stevens who by that time, was an ex-senator who would have served jail time had Eric Holder , God bless him, not investigated what really went on. Sadly, Ted Stevens died in a plane crash not long after Attorney General Holder gave him back his good name, and restored his dignity which was robbed by George W. Bush who framed Stevens, a member of the Republican Party for over 60 years. President Bush should have went to jail for high crimes and misdemeanors, especially for lying to the American people about weapons of mass destruction that never existed in Iraq.
Sadly, these days we have no journalists possessed of any courage to take on Cuomo. New York news reporters fear Cuomo. Ask your selves why, and you will find that Cuomo is vengeful, and is capable of indicting even a ham sandwich..

Certainly the residents of the Bronx are the victims, however they are responsible for electing a criminal and allowing his family to cause this inconvenience to their lives. They should Vote Diaz out before the Government determines what he's up to.
