Waiting for Superman is a film funded and produced by the impeccably liberal David Guggenheim (of An Inconvenient Truth fame). It chronicles the desperate attempts by inner city children and their parents to 'win' the lotteries that enable handfuls of them to escape the unionized but oh so progressive hell holes called the public schools. I dare you to watch the trailer without tears in your eyes. These children desperately wait for a lottery number and cheer rapturously because they have 'won'. What have they won? The right to got to a school that has far less money than their local public school. Why would anyone cheer to go to a poorer school? Because it isn't run by teacher's unions and their fascist 'progressive' footmen.
Watch the trailer. Virtually everyone in the trailer voted for Obama. Obama in one of his first acts as President eliminated the Washington DC voucher program program that offered some of these children hope. Only through enormous outcry was it restored. But only for the kids who were already in it. Mr. Hope and Change is consigning these kid's younger brothers and sisters back to the hell they sought to escape. Why? Because he owes the unions. He needs to pay them back.
So he pays them back in the coin of children's lives.
So my friends, watch the trailer, look the children. And turn away saying 'sorry but I've got my wonderful high quality public schools'. Go ahead, I dare you.
This just in: Union "Teachers" protest the viewing of the film here. Guggenheim talking about the film here:
This is an inconvenient truth.
