Yet another Obama official on the unions' payroll

Obama's pay czar Kenneth Feinberg is one of the most powerful men in America right now, having the exclusive power of determining executive pay. He is even able to draw back money that has already been paid. Now he is headed to the American Federation of Teachers union to allegedly help them improve public education by identifying the bad teachers. A shrewd move by the second largest teacher's union who recognize that Feinberg is revered as a "mediator". He teaches this at his alma mater, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst -- and its eponymous Feinberg Institute -- which claims to deal with "life, value and compensation studies", and asks such questions as "How much is a human life worth?"
Feinberg was once administrative assistant and chief of staff to the late Senator Ted Kennedy, and is a founding partner in anothe eponymous organization, the Feinberg Group. It has arbitrated cases ranging from Agent Orange liability and asbestos injuries to the administration of the fund for victims of the Virginia Tech shooting. Feinberg is a director of a George Soros-funded legal group, Human Rights First.
