Let's Do Lunch

Diane at Respublica picks up on this, don't Bill and Hill ever talk?

Well, we know Bill was Down Under trying to crash a course crowded with women golfers, and is in the process of hiring interns, so maybe not.

But you would think when it comes to politics they would get their strategy straight on the ports deal and not be on opposite sides.

Via Drudge, The Financial Times:

Bill Clinton, former US president, advised top officials from Dubai two weeks ago on how to address growing US concerns over the acquisition of five US container terminals by DP World.

It came even as his wife, Senator Hillary Clinton, was leading efforts to derail the deal....

Mr Clinton’s contact with Dubai on the issue underscores the relationship he has developed with the United Arab Emirates since leaving office. In 2002, he was paid $300,000 (€252,000) to address a summit in Dubai.

Hey, Bill needs to keep himself supplied with the latest in golf gear, after all.
