The Clinton’s Tax Records Show an Unusual Tie to Dubai

 Much has been made about the Clinton’s tax returns since they have been released, from the fact that the Clinton’s made $109 million since Bill left office to the fact that they donated $10 million to their own foundation, thereby paying themselves and getting a $10 million tax deduction. I wanted to write about another aspect of their tax returns that I haven’t seen much written about. I am referring to this article.

Former President Bill Clinton has earned $15.4 million from billionaire Ron Burkle’s Yucaipa Cos. investment firm since 2003, according to tax documents released.

That may raise new questions about what services he performed for Los Angeles-based Yucaipa, whose investors include the ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid al- Maktoum.

Tax lawyers said the Yucaipa partnership income for Bill Clinton looks to be a form of salary.

 Could Bill Clinton be in the back pocket of the ruler of Dubai? You remember Dubai, don’t you? A Dubai company was looking to take over the security of the United States ports, yet there was outcry against this ally by Republicans and Democrats alike as both parties played politics with the potential deal. Dubai withdrew their bid to take over the ports.

 Now we find out that Bill Clinton may have dealings with the ruler of Dubai himself and we hear virtually nothing about it. As the article questions, rightfully so, If Dubai is paying Bill Clinton $15 million and his wife may become president, what do they think they are paying for?

What are they being paid for, and if it’s the Sheikh of Dubai paying the husband of somebody who might be the next president of the United States, what do they think they’re paying for?”

 It seems to me that somebody should be asking these questions, yet the media remains silent on this. Imagine if Goerge Bush was on the payroll of the ruler of Dubai. I don’t think that would go unnoticed.
