"Go ahead and release him, then shoot him in the back as he walks out of prison and claim that he tried to escape."

Ever hear of the W80? That's our MIRV h-bomb. Bill Clinton is walking around everywhere. He's the reason the Chinese reportedly have that. (And the Pershing missile factory -- they packed up the whole thing and shipped it the China.) Are you then asking someone to shoot Clinton in the back?

That's a stretch of an analogy, not a great one, but it has some reach to it. Some honesty. Why are folks so wired off wrt/ Pollard? Of folks who have spied for allies, his served more time than any. He has served hard time. Years in max, in solitary.

Pollard didn't just "spy for an ally" if the ultimate recipient of his information was the Soviet Union.

If Clinton were ever to be indicted, tried and convicted of espionage and/or treason for the W88 tech transfer, my feelings on what state-authorized, state-executed punishment he should receive relative to Pollard would be pretty consistant. Same thing applies to Leaky Leahy.

Sounds like he needs a little R&R. How about we send him to Club Gitmo for a little rest. See how he likes the Al Qaeda guys since he's too good for Americans.
