Title: Do we have any Spanish speakers here?
Post by: Mr Mannn on August 08, 2010, 04:11:50 PM: http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2010/08/06/andalucia_malaga/1281082124.html

The last paragraph supposedly says Michelle Obama is holding meetings on her Spanish "vacation" with Saudi officials.

I would like to confirm its says this and find out if the site is a legit news site.

If true it explains why the liberal media is focusing on the extravagant expenses, and not what she is doing in Spain.

Mods, if this doesn't pan out, would you please delete this post?

Several Arab royal families also spend their summers in Marbella for many years. Thus, there will be a meeting between Michelle Obama and Prince Salman bin Abdul Aziz, governor of Riyadh and brother of the late King Fahd of Saudi Arabia, while another meeting is shuffled from the first lady with the owner of MÃ¡laga CF, billionaire businessman, son of Qatar's Interior Minister and member of the Qatari royal family, Abdullah Al Thani.

I know a lot of liberal blogs disguise themselves as news sources to present opinion and lies as fact.

Sounds legit to me, if you can trust wiki.

There will be a meeting between Michelle Obama and Prince Salman bin Abdul Aziz, governor of Riyadh and brother of the late King Fahd of Saudi Arabia, meanwhile another meeting is shuffled(? this is the only translation I can find for 'barajar') ith the first lady with the owner of MÃ¡laga CF, billionaire businessman, son of Qatar's Interior Minister and member of the Qatari royal family, Abdullah Al Thani.

So far it seems that El Mundo is the only source of this story though there are other reports of their story.

El mismo medio tambiÃ©n informÃ³ que Michelle Obama, mantendrÃ¡ un encuentro con el prÃncipe Salman bin Abdelaziz, gobernador de Riad y hermano del fallecido Rey Fahd de Arabia SaudÃ, quien tambiÃ©n estÃ¡ veraneando en Marbella.

Por otro lado, tambiÃ©n se baraja la posibilidad de que la esposa del presidente Obama, se reÃºna con Abdullah Al Thani, empresario multimillonario, propietario del MÃ¡laga CF e hijo del ministro del Interior de Qatar.

Isn't that well above her "pay grade"?
