Sounds like a porn movie
I think the Love Guru poster really caught the mystique.
Mark Leyner, omg no...that’s too funny...ROFLMAO
In addition to Leezza and the former Mrs. Sarkozy, let’s not forget former NYT reporter Judith Miller who also let the camel’s nose under the tent.
Well you have to give this old terrorist credit. He has a taist for fine women. Have you ever seen his security force? They are all HOT! AND he did settle the plane bombing case. I think he got religion after Reagan bombed his butt.
