Typically Spanish ^ | July 25, 2010

The United States President will spend four days of his holiday in the town with his family during August

The President of the United States, Barack Obama, his wife Michelle, and their daughters Malia and Sasha, will spend part of their summer holidays in Marbella.

In what will be his first visit to Spain as President, he will stay from August 4 – 8 in the luxury Villapadierna Hotel.

Before returning to the United States, Obama will travel to the Marivent Palace on Mallorca to meet with King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia. He’s also expected to meet with the Spanish Prime Minister, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, at some point.

Government sources quoted by El Mundo, while failing to confirm the news, said if it were to happen it would be a ‘clear demonstration of the excellent relations currently between Spain and the United States'.

Last I heard that Gulf vacation was only promised to be an ‘overnight’.

White House has issued a statement saying this report is not true.

So we know he's got his ticket punched.

Well..well..well. We now know why Obama wants to go to Spain. I am getting pretty sick of this man spending our money like he is a king.

Will Reggie and Bo be going too.

He uses Bo the dog as an excuse to bring his guy friend along.

Of course Michelle is fuming about the boyfriend so they take a seperate jet.

I think so. I think she was summoned and is acting as a bag lady. Consider:

1. The trip came out of nowhere.

2. The trip is a serious political liability.

3. She is missing her husband’s birthday to go.

4. No media will be allowed to cover her activities.

I used to be suspicious what came back on Air Force One when the Clinton’s went to China and elsewhere. In Michelle’s case, its beyond suspicion. I bet foreign intel agencies (France for example) will monitor her meetings.

I wouldn't want to stay there!...too gaudy.

I thought only Michelle and Sasha were going and Zero was staying home.

Guess he just couldn't pass up a trip...before their real vacation in Martha's Vineyard.

Meeting with Arabs, somehow contradicts other threads where it has been said that Mabelle Antoinette CANNOT escort her husband’s meeting with other Arabs???
