Bill Clinton Gets $20 Mil to Cut Dubai Ties

RUSH: By the way, Bill Clinton's going to get a payout of about $20 million for leaving the Yucaipa Companies, Ron Burkle's Yucaipa Companies. Yup: Clinton getting out of there because Yucaipa has a sensitive partnership with Dubai, and you can't have that when your wife's running for president. You can go to Dubai when Bush is president -- your wife and you can run the country when you're in Dubai and Abu Dhabi -- but you can't do a deal with Dubai, so you get paid $20 mil. to get out. So there's some money you can take, Mrs. Clinton! Because, I mean, you're in a high tax bracket, so you don't need all that money. Besides, Mrs. Clinton needs money for all these programs she's proposing. Between Bob Iger's $27 mil. and her husband's $20 mil., she has $47 mil. right there. That ain't chump change, folks -- not when it comes to feeding a child. I mean, do you realize how many children you can feed with $47 million?
