CBO's Orszag to White House?

The Post's Lori Montgomery is hearing that one name being talked about to head president-elect Obama's White House Budget Office is Peter Orszag, currently the head of the Congressional Budget Office.

Here's a long bio of Orszag.

You may recall that, back in September, Orszag testified that the $700 billion Wall Street bailout/rescue plan may actually worsen the economic crisis.

In his Director's Blog, Orszag said that our reporting on his testimony was "not fully accurate," and further explained what he said, or meant to say.

You decide.
