I’m not sure, but Jesse Jr. can’t just be along for the ride, right?

I'm not sure he went there with Michelle. All El Mundo reports is:

The first lady could see another American politcian known to Obama, who is staying these days in a private house in Marbella: Jesse Jackson Jr....

So who owns the place? Is he paying rent? A freebie in Marbella could be a matter for the House ethics committee and maybe the IRS.

I have no idea who owns the place and I doubt he's paying rent, although I'm sure "receipts" are easily manufactured.

You hit gold, my FRiend! Congratulations and THANKS!

Here’s some more info, thought you may find it interesting.

She’ll will be attending a Gala this weekend and one of the guests there is Adnan Khashoggi.

From the Telegraph:

“One name on the guest list that could raise a few eyebrows among US diplomatic circles is Adnan Khashoggi.

The Saudi Arabian businessman, 75, who made his name as an arms dealer in the 1980s, was linked to the Iran-Contra scandal in which the Reagan administration allegedly sanctioned the sale of weapons to Iran in breach of an international arms embargo.”
