Obama trio planning to skip ex-budget director Peter Orszag’s wedding

It’s not business, it’s personal. Don’t expect senior White House advisers David Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett and Rahm Emanuel at former Obama budget director Peter Orszag‘s wedding this weekend at Capitale on the Bowery. The Obama power trio were expected at the lavish nuptials, but decided not to come at the last minute. The snub comes after Orszag, who resigned as budget director in late July, wrote an op-ed column that clashed with the Obama administration’s stance in favor of raising taxes on earners of more than $250,000 a year. “Basically they want to show a unified front, that they are not hanging out with the enemy,” a source told The Post’s Mark DeCambre. Orszag, who Emanuel once said “made nerdy sexy,” is tying the knot with stunning ABC News correspondent Bianna Golodryga, who caught his eye at a black-tie dinner in May 2008. Calls to Orszag and the White House weren’t returned.
