Pepper Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Washington Examiner: Michelle: Barack ‘brought us out of the dark, into the light’ First lady Michelle Obama hit the campaign trail again Tuesday, preaching the Gospel of Barack and telling a Nashville fundraiser that the nation is lucky to have him at the helm. “We are so blessed to have him. We are so blessed,” she said to applause. The reason: “This president has brought us out of the dark and into the light.” Insert appropriate images below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rheo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) Our aunt lives in a nearby assisted living residence. On a recent visit, I noticed this shopping bag. (She loves shopping bags...when I confiscated it, I only obtained her forgiveness by promising another one. Without the, uh, message.) If you can't read the inscription, please let me enlighten you: "Barack is of Hebrew origin, and its meaning is "flash of lightning." In the Bible (Judges 4:6) "Barak is a valiant fighting man who cooperated with the prophetess Deborah to win victory in a battle against overwhelming odds. "Hussein: is of Biblical meaning: good and handsome. So you see Barak was destined to be a good and handsome man that would rise like a flash of lightning to win victory in a battle against overwhelming odds. "PROPHECY FULFILLED!" The Lady in the Pew 2010 Wonder if Barack had those made. Edited April 17, 2012 by Rheo fixed typo by author Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casino67 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Rheo, was there a line as to who was responsible for the bag? Certainly wasn't a Catholic thing was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Rheo, was there a line as to who was responsible for the bag? Certainly wasn't a Catholic thing was it? No, no mention of who made/produced/sold it. Thank goodness the Lady in the Pew probably had it burned by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 yup gag material for sure. What a disgusting blob of protoplasm Do they (the Obama campaign) understand how truly weird this sort of thing comes across as? I mean obviously Michelle Obama is going to sing her husbands praises, but there is a right way and a wrong way to do this, speech writers are supposed to know this kind of thing. OTOH it does provide people with a sarcastic/snarky mindset the opportunity to have a great deal of fun at their expense. While I would never say anything like.....St Barack the Just and Pure or post images portraying our President in anyway than in a dignified way befitting his position and the office he holds.
