Enjoy it while you can and are able, Barry...enjoy it while you can.

Yep middle of a recession and the capital is a buzz with a lavish social event
Great PR move
“WME Entertainment Agency co-CEO Ari Emanuel.

Possible.
No state dinner for the British Prime Minister.
NO SOUP FOUR YOU!
A special form of disrespect (BO Dissing our allies)

I'm sure Michelle & Barry will be sure to get a photo-op shoveling out turkey & dressing someplace other than the White House.

Dis guy and his Chicago gang dey wants to ‘control’ everything, yoo know, get dere hooks in...so ta speak...

There was a time when actors were considered the scum of the earth and ranked just below prostitutes.
Birds of a feather....
