Dick Morris: Clinton on Dubai Payroll

Former President Bill Clinton is up to his eyeballs in dealings with Dubai, his former top political adviser has revealed. According to Dick Morris, author of the best-selling book, "Condi vs, Hillary," Clinton is a paid agent of the crown prince of Dubai, now involved in a firestorm over its deal to take over some of the operations at six major U.S. ports. "Bill Clinton is a senior adviser - a paid adviser - to a company called Ukepa which recently set up a relationship with a group called the Yucaipa Investment group to set up a new company called DIGL," Morris said on "The O'Reilly Factor." "DIGL Inc. is in charge of managing the investments of the crown prince of Dubai throughout the world. Bill Clinton is paid by Yucaipa a percentage of the profits it makes, and Yucaipa said its profits have exceeded 40 percent in recent years. "He is a paid agent of the crown prince of Dubai.

Doesn't one have to register with the feds when operating as an agent of a foreign government? I wonder if Clinton has done that.

Doesn't register as a sex offender....why would he register as an agent of a foreign government?

I was immediately reminded of Clinton playing saxophone on the Jay Leno show.

Excellent comparison. I saw that same History Channel documentary. I wish I had thought up your analogy.

Democrat officials' firm helped Dubai purchase ports



Little noticed in the kerfuffle over the takeover of major US ports by Dubai Ports is the key role being played by former Democratic Party leaders. Lobbying firms associated with ex-Democratic Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle and Madeleine Albright (Clinton’s Secretary of State) have been working (paid subscription only link) to secure approval of the purchase by Dubai.

One would think that our leaders, even when out of office, would care more about their nation than their bank accounts.This hopefully will give impetus to a bill (drafted by Republican Congressman Mike Rogers of Michigan) working its slow way through Congress that would bar federal employees from representing foreign governments for four years after they leave public service.

A sad statement: we need a law that restricts former government leaders, who presumably would have America’s interest at heart, from going on the payroll of foreign regimes, even those with connections to terror activities.

Well, O'R does not usually let things like this go - hopefully he will be like a dog with a bone and this will impact H's future (and maybe present) political career adversely.

That's a lot of hoping -

bill O'Reilly said that Clinton should register. And he raised questions about implications for Hillary since the money goes possibly into both of their accounts.

'...to a company called Ukepa'
Sounds like a university in Italy.

P&O claims it is "The largest independent stevedore and terminal operator on the U.S. East and Gulf coasts".
Look here for the massive scope of their operations.

Hey look! Another thread about the Clintons. Haven't been any submitted for, oh, the last five minutes.
Not my reason for posting though. That would be why one would sink to the unenviable level of using a depraved individual like Dick Morris as a source in their quest to put the Clintons in permanent political exile?

There's an abundance of information out there pertaining to Clinton iniquities. One doesn't have to resort to rummaging around the garbage dumpsters.

Never has so much drivel been repeated over and over again by the MSM and the ignoramuses we call politicians. One despairs as to the very basis of democracy--an informed electorate.

The left has taken over the media and the education system in order to misinform the electorate. They are driving religion out of the public domain so that we won't have a moral electorate either. As you say, informed and moral are the foundation of our country. It is obvious they intend to destroy our country as it is now constituted.

Standing in the way are us and talk radio. They are working hard to silence both.

Jimmy Carter walking rather than riding down Pennsylvania Avenue after his inauguration, the first to jog publicly in shorts (followed by Clinton and Gore) and run in a marathon (Where the wall got him before the rabid rabbit attack), and selling the Presidential yacht, in his attempt to lesson the respect for the office.

Well now jla, please keep us from sinking further into depravity by telling us exactly what the depraved Dick Morris said about the unregistered foreign lobbyist- Slick Willie Clinton - that is a lie.
Somehow, I bet you won't.

First you show me where I said he was lying. (Somehow, I bet you can't).
My point, which eludes you, is that characters such as Morris need not be sought out to reveal any Clinton villainy.
In the future, if you need interpretation of my remarks, just ask...politely.
