Title: Unions target movie "Won't Back Down"
Post by: LadyVirginia on September 26, 2012, 09:41:04 AM
Teachers unions and their allies are none too happy about "Won't Back Down." (http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Hollywood/2012/09/24/davis-stunned-reaction-wont-back-down?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+BreitbartFeed+%28Breitbart+Feed%29&utm_content=Yahoo%21+Mail)

The film, opening Friday, concerns a single mother (Maggie Gyllenhaal) and a teacher (Viola Davis) who team up to take control of a crumbling public school failing local children.
 
The film's director and leads all describe themselves as "pro-union." The movie's love interest (played by handsome young star Oscar Isaac) is a major union booster who frequently speaks up on behalf of unions during the film. And while the unions are the "heavy" in the feature they certainly aren't castigated the way, say, big business routinely is in films.

These people are so insulated and stupid.  When I heard the premise of this movie weeks ago I could've predicted the reaction.

The unions understand that they're not really for the children although they've convinced many that they are.  Which I think is why these lefty actors had no idea that the unions would react this way.  They really think the unions are for the kids.

The kids are a means to enrich the unions, period.  Those thinking differently are fools or liars.  And the unions are but one cog in the Democrat-Media Complex designed to perpetuate the raping of taxpayers until it all collapses because there are no more taxpayers...
