Hillary’s Mystery Woman: Who is Huma? {Top aide a Muslim raised in Saudi Arabia}
New York Observer ^ | April 1, 2007 | Spencer Morgan

Posted on 07/26/2007 11:28:34 AM PDT by 3AngelaD

Last June, under an oppressive sun, at a rally to save the Niagara military base at the University of Buffalo, all of New York’s top politicians—George Pataki, Chuck Schumer, Hillary Clinton—poured sweat. Yet there was exactly one member of the wilting delegation who managed, somehow, to stay cool: Hillary Clinton’s mysterious, glamorous and eerily unflappable aide de camp, Huma Abedin.

“It was like 110 degrees outside,” recalled the source, a political aide who asked to remain anonymous. “We were all just pouring down with sweat. But I have this distinct memory of Huma traipsing in in this blue pantsuit—it was like this wool pantsuit—not a bead of sweat on her brow, not a hair out of place, with everything perfectly organized in her Yves Saint Laurent handbag.”

That sort of fantastical, supernaturally tinged tale is not unusual. Indeed, in the insular world of New York and D.C. politics, Huma Abedin has become a sort of mythical figure.

On a day-to-day basis, Ms. Abedin is responsible for guiding the Senator from one chaotic event to the next and ensuring that the many hundreds of situations that arise at each—the photo ops, the handshakes, the speeches—go smoothly. The job of “body person”—industry-speak for the catchall role of an omnipresent traveling assistant—is a notoriously grueling one, requiring unfaltering level-headedness and a zeal for multitasking. These folks are constantly on the move, juggling 20 different chores, and they consequently often appear slightly disheveled (or even sweaty)... Very little is publicly known about her, which of course leaves plenty to talk about. And the rumors abound. According to various accounts from Huma acquaintances interviewed for this story: She’s Lebanese, she’s Jordanian, she’s Iranian, she’s 26, she’s 36, she has two children, she lives with the Clintons...

This is Mrs. Clinton's top aide. Goes with her everywhere. And, according to my Vogue magazine, "fluent in Arabic, and a practicing Muslim born in Kalamazoo, MI, to a Pakistani mother and Indian father. Moved to Saudi Arabia when she was two...Her father is an Islamic scholar...." Too bad Vogue is not one line because their story is a real eye-opener.

Am I the only person who thinks it is strange that Mrs. Clinton has a top aide who is a Muslim raised in Saudi Arabia? What is going on here?

Bill got his money from the Indonesian Riady. Sounds like Hillary may have an agent for a larger take from Saudi.

“Stunningly good looking” “may live with the Clintons” . . . no photos on Yahoo or Google . . . daughter of Islamic scholar, raised in Saudi Arabia.

Great.

She’s Lebanese, she’s Jordanian, she’s Iranian, she’s 26, she’s 36, she has two children, she lives with the Clintons...

She's a spy. And hillary wants to waltz her right into the White House.

Now we can all see for sure who the terrorist candidate is, the one they feel will do the most for them. What arrogance on the part of mrs. Clinton to believe she could get away with something like this.

If she lives with the Clintons, then Mrs. Clinton is not nearly so smart as she believes herself to be. Not nearly.

No matter of what a-rab persuasion she is, they all support the terrorists in some way - financial or otherwise. Bet on it.
