Is George Bush analogous to John Gotti?

A new Don on the scene who doesn't respect the old ways. And because he flaunts his power and just thinks he will get away with everything just because he is the boss, will he do permanent damage to the real Cosa Nostra?

6. Some John Gotti, some Fredo Corleone.
Abrasive and arrogant, but often painfully ignorant and deluded as well.

12. Somewhat, This Begs Query, Why Watch The Sopranos On TV If You Don't
like the way the BFEE operates?

It's one thing to read a book or see a movie.

It's another to welcome that crap into your subconcious weekly and with devotion.
