Hillary not aware of Bill's advice to Dubai

US Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) at a press conference on US Port Security, 01 March 2006. Former president Bill Clinton has privately advised Dubai officials how to address US political concerns over a controversial ports deal, as his wife, Senator Clinton, publicly attacks the deal(AFP/File/Paul J. Richards)

WASHINGTON - Sen. Hillary Clinton didn't know her husband was giving Dubai advice on the port deal she is fighting, and Bill Clinton says he didn't even get paid for it.

''These guys called him, and he took a phone call from them, and he told them he did not know the details of this specific proposal,'' said Bill Clinton's spokesman, Jay Carson.

The former president was traveling in Pakistan when he got the call two weeks ago, sources said, and Hillary Clinton didn't talk to him about it.

New York's junior senator was floating legislation at the time to stop Dubai Ports World from taking control of six major ports in the U.S. and demanding that the company undergo a tougher security probe.

Carson said the former president was not paid for consulting with Dubai. ''He does not have clients, nor is he an adviser for Dubai Ports World,'' he said.

Bill Clinton did, however, tell DP World it should volunteer for a 45-day investigation, as his wife and other legislators were demanding.

Didn't know, Hillie? Snort.

But you took the money, didn't you? From folks you consider to be a security risk.

Nuff said.

"''He does not have clients, nor is he an adviser for Dubai Ports World,'' "

Hmm, NOT according to what Dick Morris uncovered last night on Bill OReilly. Clinton DOES have clients and they ARE Dubai

Well, I'll bet she'll give him some advice, and at no charge, too.

Put her under OATH ha ha, Hook up the lie detector probes, she can even wear that pink suit, if she can still get into it.

Wonder if this is not what MacCain's anti-torture legislation was about protecting the media and political class from questioning their "terrorists ties"?

I saw that, & didn't Morris also say that Bill & Shrillery had a joint bank account & that the money Bill got from Dubai would have been deposited in that?

Even so, I predict nothing will come of it.

The impeached one, according to Morris, has made several trips to Dubai and is on the payroll. I'm hoping to find more articles confirming this. PIAPS is more than likely very busy in erasing any paper trail.

She's gonna give him some "advice" with a table lamp upside his head next time she sees him, LOL! :)

(This plays into my theory that Slick is NEVER going to let 'She Who Shall Not Be Named' into the White House.)

Hillary has been known to lie, so why should anyone believe her now?
