"In his spare time, one of President Clinton's bright new White House recruits dresses as an 18th century dandy—blond wig, scarlet lipstick and velvet knee-breeches—and sings songs of upper class angst such as Let Them Eat Rock and Friend of a Friend of the Working Class. Ted Widmer, whose day job is director of speech writing at the National Security Council, plays guitar and sings at night for a 'fop-rock' group, the Upper Crust."
