That is SUPER important! If she is meeting with the Saudis and other Middle Eastern people, then we should know WHY. And what about Jackson being there?

Stunned me when I found it at El Mundo. Sent it to the Daily Caller and Newsbusters. Also posted it below an article on Big Journalism. Wish Drudge or someone would report on what El Mundo says Michelle is up to. This should go everywhere ASAP. It is not in the English speaking media as far as I know.

This trip smelled from the start. Out of nowhere she decides she has to visit a place known for drug lords, organized crime and the rich. She misses her husband's birthday to go. She declares it a "private vacation" and keeps the media away. She and Barack had to know they would take a PR hit for the trip but they didn't care. The trip was too important. It being three months before an election Democrats fear is going to wipe them out figures in too I believe.

There is another angle here as well. High level meetings such as this are for the State Department to handle. Obama is having some trouble with Hillary lately. Looks to me he is bypassing the State Department by sending Michelle.

For those who missed the background, the post on Michelle meeting with a Qatar billionaire and an Arab Prince is here:

I don’t read Spanish. Is this absolutely true? (Sorry, I don’t know you so I have to ask.)

I can post this on Twitter and send it to Stephen Hayes. I don’t want to make a mistake, though.

You have an excellent, important find! I’m glad you’ve sent it to those outlets so far. Wouldn’t it be great if Drudge picked it up?

How about including Hot Air and Don Surber, too? Maybe Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit? Everywhere you can think to get the word out.

Surber has been on top of this and just recently posted this article about the coverage of Michelle in Spain by the U.S. Press:

U.S. press doesn’t cover “Lady of Spain.” Fleet Street doesn’t

I can’t find that story on the page of El Mundo that you linked. Do you have a link to the actual story?

Hmmm, the plot sickens...

Excellant work! Send it to FOXnews.com or Me@glennbeck.com either will pass it on.

Picking up pay to play for funding the NOv election is another possibility.

MO is the only one he could trust to get “whatever the job was” done....Probably the only one customs wouldn’t queston.

But... but... Gibbs said that she was just a private citizen taking a vacation.

Gibbs wouldn't lie to the American people, would he?
