It Depends On What The Defintion Of Dubai Is


You've got to enjoy the latest round of Clinton lies and deceit. According to a Newsday article, Bill gave United Arab Emirates officials advice on how to handle the Dubai ports controversy two weeks ago but, didn't tell his wife about that conversation. At least that's the way Hillary is spinning it. Although, it's pretty hard to believe Bill can do anything that doesn't fall under her watchful eye. She's been burned once too often.

Bill's phone conversation is supposed to have taken place while the former president was traveling in Pakistan last month.

That would put Bill in line with her position that the ports deal could compromise national security, a stance she needs to grease the skids for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Bob Novak reported that the Bill Clinton urged the Dubai official to hire former White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart to handle damage control on the ports, despite the fact that Lockhart's consulting firm, the Glover Park Group, is a central part of Hillary Clinton's political operation.

When Sen. Clinton was asked yesterday if her husband discussed the conversation with her, she replied, "No, the president, my husband, supports my position, a position that is rooted in legitimate concerns about security."

Sure, Hillary that's as convincing as Bill's sexual realtions denial. This time it will be, "I did not have financial relations with that nation."

Hillary says she didn’t know her husband was getting money from Dubai but, her senatorial financial disclosure forms reveal that he received $450,000 for making speeches there in 2002. So how could she not know? Hillary is a control freak, she knows what on those disclosure forms.

It would be hard to believe that Hillary was unaware the UAE made a large donation to the presidential library in Little Rock.

Bill will sell out his Dubai pals if he has to, already backpedaling on them in a sppech in New Zealand where he mentioned DP World "is from UAE, where some of the money from 9/11 was laundered."

Hillary will be tightening the reins on Billy Boy, before he blows her chances at securing the brass ring of presidential contender.

Stay tuned!
