“Gangsters in Pinstripes and Pearls”

Part of my shtick is to write imaginary conversations between officials of the Obama administration, with accompanying photos of gangsters (as in a recent post, for example, where I had two of Capone’s torpedoes stand in for Axelrod and Plouffe).

Michael Goodwin in the Daily News seems to share my perspective.

What a lot of admirable characters are on display recently.
