Hillary Clinton, a leading opponent of DP World's takeover of some US port operations, was this week forced to admit that she did not know her husband had advised Dubai leaders on how to handle the growing dispute.
But former President Bill Clinton's ties to Dubai and the United Arab Emirates should not have come as a surprise to his New York senator wife.
Mrs Clinton's own senatorial financial disclosure forms reveal that her husband earned $450,000 giving speeches in Dubai in 2002.

Mrs Clinton's own senatorial financial disclosure forms reveal that her husband earned $450,000 giving speeches in Dubai in 2002.Can you imagine how hard a scumbag Democrat operation like MSNBC had to swallow to allow this to be published? The only thing more surprising would be if the New York Times got into this - - even if they buried the story in the back pages somewhere.

LOL
Yup, I believe her.
That's the kind of President I want in the WH. A President who doesn't know the deals the First Spouse is cutting behind her back. Sheesh!

Ah, "The World's Smartest Woman" is ignorant of her husband's own actions once again...
Sure, and I am the Emperor of the Universe. The Beast knew, but she just doesn't want to get burned. She has yet to realise that her own mouth and feigned ignorance are among her greatest liabilities.

She and Bill must not talk. You'd have thought that before she announced her opposition to this deal, she would have run it by him. You'd also think that he'd have told her he was involved the minute it became an issue.

That's the kind of President I want in the WH. A President who doesn't know the deals the First Spouse is cutting behind her back. Sheesh!My thoughts exactly!

Probably she knew, but her handlers told her to oppose the deal, and they did not know.
To: BigSkyFreeper
Mrs Clinton told the New York Post on Thursday that she did not know her husband had been contacted by Dubai officials two weeks ago and offered them advice on the deal. Although both Hillary and Bill Clinton say he stands behind her on the issue and there is no direct conflict, his relationship to the UAE has complicated her political stance on the transaction.

If anyone thinks she did know .. think again!
The question is .. why EXACTLY is she and other playing both sides of the fence
I smell some backroom dealings between the Dems, the Miami Co suing and the unions

Just like she didn't know her hubby was being "serviced" in the Oval Office ... and didn't know where the billing records disappeared to ... didn't know pardons were being sold ...
THE LIST IS ENDLESS. And they call her the smartest woman is America! Sheesh!
To: BigSkyFreeper
The Clintons returning to the White House would initiate thievery and corruption unparalleled in US History.

Yes, it is surprising that NBC would utter a syllable against the Clintons. Maybe they are having second thoughts about Hillary as their candidate in '04.
Seems like the entire Democrat establishment, ABC, CBS, CNN, PBS, NPR, some at the DNC, the NEW REPUBLIC, and maybe even the NYTs are beginning to question whether she's smart enought or likable enough to win.
