Not just Colombia: It's also the U.A.E.

In January, Clinton said called for more openness with regard to foreign government investment funds. She didn't mention that her chief strategist represented several such funds.

Now that the Colombia story is starting to gel, there's another story that deserves some discussion: the relationship between the Clintons, their aides (including Mark Penn), and the U.A.E.

A good place to start would be the Dubai ports deal.
