Meet the Clintons in and out of the UAE
Khaleej Times ^ | March 4, 2006 | BILL O BRIEN & MATEIN KHALID

Posted on 03/05/2006 9:56:24 AM PST by TheLion

MANY residents of UAE thought — mistakenly as it turns out — that they knew the Clintons. Former president Bill and former co-president/current New York Senator Hillary were deemed to be friends of the UAE — and the Arab world in general.

While Hillary hadn’t visited the UAE recently, Bill is a regular — at least when he’s invited for a paid speech or appearance. Sometimes, he’s graced us in person — other times via a video conference. President Bush, everyone agreed, was an anti-Arab cowboy, worthy of little more than derision.

Good job. The media is looking more and more irrelevant every day. To those of us who know better.

The ones I worry about are the Americans who only get their news in snippets from the MSM and headlines in the newspapers.

It's time Republicans start driving the agenda, but I guess I can't hold my breath waiting for that to happen.

If they knew the Clintons, they would also have known that money talks. They have to bribe both of them now. Bill isn't President anymore.

If they paid, they could have had our nuclear technology like China. Silly Arabs. You have to pay BOTH Clintons!

Hillary and the Democrats don't understand the new media yet, it is going to hold people responsible for their actions.

Ouch! That's going to leave a mark.

Great piece. These guys really show the Clintons for what they are. And that part about the democrats protectionist vision for America really hit me hard: "Think France. Big government, powerful government worker unions, maximum insulation from foreign intrusions, national industrial champions, and the use of any device to somehow wish away globalisation and competition." Yikes.

What a hypocrite bunch of people the Clintons are, but again hypocrisy is one of the major despicable traits of liberals.

Maybe I'm unduly discouraged, The Lion. I've believed that about the new media for years. And we've either become lazy on FR and aren't e-mailing threads like yours around to the conservative writers and radio hosts and our Congressmen, or they just aren't listening to us.

EXCELLENT!!

Even Johnboy Edwards has gone to Dubais...for $$? Albright too? Perhaps Dubais now understand that THE President Bush is more trustworthy than its former buddy.

If only we could make sure the MSM knew about this and actually reported it.

Good catch!

Did you see the part where Clinton liked the Sharia banking aspect? I'm sure he is a full supporter of Sharia law, since it denigrates womens into property status.
