Powerful words – from a cartoonist whose images invoke even greater power. That\u2019s why our guest, British cartoonist Bob Moran<\/strong>, is now part of the \u2018independent media\u2019 where he has been freed to express his view of the truth.<\/p>\n

As a former cartoonist with The Telegraph,<\/em> the power and influence of Moran\u2019s work was demonstrated by that paper\u2019s dismissing him for expressing opinions inconsistent with the paper\u2019s tyrannical narrative. Now through the Democracy Fund,<\/em> Moran has dedicated himself to making his cartoons available for free in an effort to broaden awareness of the true political, moral, and social crisis in which we find ourselves.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As to the power of art <\/strong>itself, Ayn Rand once described its source this way: <\/p>\n

\u201cMetaphysics \u2013 that science that deals with the fundamental nature of reality \u2013 involves man\u2019s widest abstractions. It includes every concrete he has ever perceived, it involves such a vast sum of knowledge and such a long chain of concepts that no man could hold it all in the focus of his immediate conscious awareness. Yet he needs that sum and that awareness to guide him – he needs the power to summon them into full, conscious focus. That power is given to him by art.\u201d<\/em> (Ayn Rand, Art and Sense of Life)<\/p>\n

Thus the saying \u201ca picture is worth a thousand words\u201d proves Just Right since images have the power to accelerate an awareness of the truth in a way that words alone cannot.<\/p>\n
