Build the culture you want to live in. Turn the other one off.

The decline of civilization, the shifting demographics, increasing debt, and turn to socialism under Obama, while deplorable, should not weaken conservatives’ resolve to put up a defense and roll some of this back.

This article lost me when it started to get into the whole apocalyptic end of days stuff.

Is Obama Mabus?

Ray Mabus is his Secretary of the Navy.

Some people find this significant.

Ray Mabus is his Secretary of the Navy.

It's definitely a creepy coincidence as a minimum.....

.....especially with the 2012 world end date in the Mayan calendar within the term of Obama.
