Peter Orszag runs wild

by Joel Auchenbach/Washington Post

The office of OMB has just become the office of OMG.

Peter Orszag, the director of the Office of Management and Budget -- the man charged with the unenviable, arguably impossible job of making President Obama's budget numbers line up -- has a personal life with its own set of management challenges that would drive most people to bankruptcy, and perhaps even to insanity.

He's divorced with two young kids. He and his ex-wife share custody.

The 40-year-old Orszag had a "committed relationship" with a hottie heiress, Claire Milonas, 39, last year that proved not to be so committed after all -- he ran off with a different hottie, 31-year-old journalist Bianna Golodryga, who he met at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. They're getting married.

But wait! The jilted heiress turns out to have been carrying her own unfunded mandate. She delivered the baby girl in November. Following the disclosure of the "love child" by the New York Post, Orszag and Milonas on Wednesday issued a joint statement acknowledging the birth and asking, Tiger-like, for "privacy."

We certainly believe here in the A-blog that even public figures deserve a certain amount of privacy. But frankly I don't see how Orszag can balance three families AND the national budget.

The only thing more complicated than Orszag's domestic situation is the federal budget itself. You might say: Well then this is a man who can handle that crazy Norman Mailer lifestyle! If he can budget a $3.5 trillion government, he can hit two or three or four end-of-school picnics on the same Friday afternoon! What I'm saying is, there's a breaking point. There are event horizons. The guy is going to hit his own Chandrasekhar Limit. Something's going to give.

1. He'll resign for personal reasons within two weeks.

The president doesn't put up with distracting underlings, and he shouldn't.

2. One would hope...but he's got good reason...

Would hope for Geithner first...but a "two-fer" would be good, too. Never happen...but it should...we can dream can't we.
