At first they reminded me of Terry Richardson with less boobs. But I kind of like them.

If you listen to the audio thing they talk about how they told each person they could pick an object for their portrait, and Axelrod was like "cookie! :D"

lol totally old man adorable.

I was about to say that there was a disproportionate amount of sexy in this administration-- what, with Mr. Kang, Ms. Sutphen et. al, but dang, there's a lot of funny looking too. Yay for diversity. Even the funny looking have jobs! Woo!

The picture of Peter Orszag is my FAVORITE. He looks EXACTLY like the Director of Office of Budget and Management should look like.
