The sheikdom has contributed to the Clinton Presidential Library, and brought Clinton to Dubai in 2002 and 2005 for speeches (reportedly at $300,000 apiece).

Shakedown, that was my first reading of this sentence

Joe Lockhart is a bug-eyed, BS artist.

No wonder Clinton hired him.

Not exactly. Having failed privately to hook up Lockhart with DP World, the former president publicly turned on his old friends from the UAE last Friday in a speech at Auckland, New Zealand. DP World, he said, ''is from UAE, where some of the money from 9/11 was laundered.''

That would be a strange money connection: Interest gained from the laundered money that was used to strike the WTC by individuals that Clinton failed to kill, is now being used to pay Clinton to propose a port deal.

The poor Commie 'RATS. They can't even contrive a decent "scandal" anymore. The 'RATS are all involved up to their necks in "katrina," Abramoff and the port scandals even as they point their crooked little fingers at Bush and the GOP. DemocRATS are such losers.

Not a pretty sight. However, this could also be another way of reassuring the public that Hillary! and Bill don't always see eye to eye on the issues. A subtle way of saying that Hillary! will be very different as President. They did the same thing when Hillary! was running for Senate and Bill pardoned an bunch of Puerto Rican terrorists. Just the usual manipulations that far too many people will fall for.

Lockhart did not flatly deny that Clinton had made a pitch for him, but instead said he did not know whether the former president was involved. Lockhart said he was recommended by another Clintonite: Carol Browner, the former Environmental Protection Agency chief and now a principal in the Albright Group lobbying firm. Headed by former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, the company is representing DP World. Lockhart told me ''money was not the problem'' as he turned down the offer.

..he didn't know whether he was involved? Where ever $$$$ is, scumbag IS INVOLVED. Hildabeast knew all along...so now she's at quite an interesting crossroads... Now that Hildabeast has been reaping in the cash...watch the MSM start to veer away for the port story Once again the "queen" has been exposed

That's what the Dem flack on FNC tried this morning.

But they still took money, maybe still are taking money, from people Hillie considers to be a security threat.

There's no getting around that

No surprise for the grifters. Nice surprise for GOP rebuttals though...

The very best Hollywood screenwriter could not have come up with a saga like "The Clintons".

Joe the liar, Lockhart hasn't held a good job very long after his master, the Clintoon left the out house.

Scum like the liar, Lockhart, are like leeches. They can't get nor hold down a good job. So they attach themselves like leeches to big time rats like the Clintoon. When their rat loses power and leaves their political office, the leeches become lost in the real world.

There is nothing new here. When your name is Clinton you can have it all. They are just exhibiting their dexterity that succeeds in large part because the media allows them to. No, it encourages them to.
