OMB Director Peter Orszag… on The Daily Show?

Yes, that’s right. Last night was was watching The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on Comedy Central… and there he was — OMB Director Peter Orszag talking the budget.

While it seemed a bit… odd to see him there, Orszag is clearly a very smart guy and did a good job. I guess he went on to emphasize that the Obama administration inherited the budget issues — and Stewart is a fairly safe place to go to talk about it.

They have broken the interview into two parts. You can see part one here … and part two here.
