We’re No Angels

Through education there is hope. If Americans can be shown all the things they discarded when they turned their backs on the Constitution, there is hope for a full recovery.

If and when that happens, of course, the battle will resume immediately.

We’re No Angels

  • and said:

David Mamet has not become less concerned with the world’s problems; he’s come to the realization that the best way for us to help the world is to live up to our own ideals.

Contrary to the ideas advocated by the current line-up of presidential candidates, both liberal and conservative, government is not the answer. Regardless of whether a Democrat or a Republican takes office, little will actually change.

Both sides will expand government power, over-extend themselves in pursuit of empire, temporarily appease voters by offering entitlements they cannot deliver, and in the process continue to debase our currency, our wealth and our potential.

Change will come when we alter our thinking and rediscover the Constitution and our founding principles. Only then will we be of any help to others.

It’s not David Mamet, but the rest of the world that has given up. They are no longer hoping we’ll come to our senses; they are beginning to move on.

I’ve directed several of my posts on various blogs to this article. Until Americans understand the world we actually live in, as opposed to the world our politicians and mainstream media have presented to us, we are doomed to repeat our mistakes. Mistakes that further isolate us from the world, motivate those who hate us, and add immeasurably to our decline.
