Marbella Remember[s] King Fahd.
Fahd bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud. 1923 August 1, 2005. He was the king and prime minister of Saudi Arabia and leader of the House of Saud.
Everyone has a favourite Fahd story. Mine was that day he cast a glance eye over Marbellas Hotel Don Pepe. He sent a secretary to enquire how much would the owners want for the hotel.
The answerable was politely told the hotel was not for sale. The secretary replied: Everyone has a price when in comes to the king. But not that time.
It was one of the very few occasions that Fahd was rejected. But his love affair with Marbella was not dimmed. He told a local journalist that he liked the town because it is part of a land blessed by Allah, referring to the time when the area had been occupied by the Arabs from the 8th to the 13th century.
King Fahds Palace.
From the hotel Incosol just outside Marbella, Fahd directed the construction of his Marbella property, Mar Mar Palace, modelled on the White House
What significance do you think Muslims see in the Obamas visit to Marbella?

Well, well well, that’s pretty damn interesting, to say the least. WTF?
Kind of like the last years of Bill Clinton. He traveled the world with his family for no real diplomatic purpose, just sight seeing, at taxpayers expense.

I remember that well and it infuriated me at the time. Then to make matters worse, they stole things from the WH when they left. Pigs, all of them. Low class dirt bags.
More popcorn?
She’s got arms like Mike Tyson!
True and an interesting analogy, but, ultimately, their behavior turns out to be what counts, which is how it should be, especially in America.
Gibbs wouldn't lie to the American people, would he?

A trip to a sign factory? That must be where they make those $3,000 Obama Stimulus Signs that we see popping up all over the place.
Most excellent find, great investigative thread and fantastic freeping by you and the others.
Obviously, the hoopla over the trip is the distraction. This new, important info MUST be followed through.
No, they have versions of it for those too.

I looked at Le Monde and could not find anything about this.
Article and # 14.
[Thanks maggief. - Jesse Jackson, Jr.? Are he and Marie Antoinette Michelle 0bama not related?]
The Google translation is not faulty. The word "habra" means "will be", not "there might be". Now, why would she be meeting with the Governor of Riyadh? Don't we have a Secretary of State, and a State Department, chock full of diplomatic types, for this sort of thing?

Classic. Thanks for the chuckle!
Can you imagine the look on Hillary’s face when she reads this thread.
The look on her face could only be possibly described mathematically... Something along the lines of (sour cubed x (outraged + envious)nth)...

Good job, but way too much boob. She’s seriously flat chested.
It was a joke. This whole administration is a joke, The idea that Michelle is on a diplomatic vacation is also a joke. Those ‘guys’ don’t like talking to a woman whether she is BO’s wife or someone else’s.
