David Mamet has had a political conversion . . . of sorts.

I remember an interview Mamet gave around the time Glengarry Glen Ross won the Pulitzer, to the effect that he found there to be many beautiful things about capitalism, which you would not have expected from the guy who seemed only to reference its more rapacious tendencies. Mamet was always an interesting not this/not that sort of guy, though. “A work in progress,” as some would say . . .

Thanks to Mark Steyn at NRO .

Dear Reader,

While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.

Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?

Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.

How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.

Make your year-end gift now using this secure link or the button below.
