Michelle Obama made a remarkable claim when talking up her husband, President Barack Obama, at a campaign event earlier today in Nashville, Tennessee.

"I am so in," Michelle Obama said toward the end of her remarks. "I am going to be working so hard. We have an amazing story to tell. This president has brought us out of the dark and into the light."

The crowd of nearly 450 folks applauded as the first lady likened her husband to a Jesus-like figure.

In the book of Matthew, we read, "the people dwelling in darkness have seen a great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up." (Matthew 4:16) The phrase is used to describe the words Jesus preached.

With these people just about everything means the exact opposite of what they say.

What darkness would that be, and what light is she talking about? These people are scary.

Yup. Up is down and down is up. Good is bad and bad is good. Must be the last days.

21And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.

22And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.

23And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.

--Acts 12:21-23 KJV

Rick Perry said “a dark cloud...” which made him racist. What does this make Michelle?

What beetlebrain is actually saying is that Obama has taken us out of a relatively safe, but dark cave right into the path of an oncoming train. That’s the light at the end of the tunnel - comng at you at neckbreak speed.

Next: Obama lowers the ocean levels, calms Popo volcano in Mexico, and single-handily disarms nuclear Iran with soothing words and hamburgers.

Tomorrow’s LSD Trip: Obama begins to understand Obamacare is a disaster.

Speaking of “arrayed in royal apparel”, the picture on Drudge has Ms. Obama in bright purple pants, a bright red shirt, and a bright yellow sweater.

It’s like this woman sets out to look as bizarre as possible. She dresses like a clown.

#3: Great photo of Michele. Is that the official White House photo or one from the Smithsonian’s Insect Zoo collection?

Contemporary liberalism is a false religion as well as a mental disorder.

They really think we’re stupid. These words drip of contempt for America.
Nothing has been fixed. If anything our debt crisis is worse.

What are the odds of two malignant narcississts hooking up and together winding up in the White House? The odds should be staggering, that it happened says so much about the indoctrination of the American electorate, and the percentage of “gibsme” voters in this country

Does “’This President Has Brought Us Out of the Dark and Into the Light” mean the same thing as “unmitigated disaster”?

This president has brought us out of the dark and into the light."

Once you understand who the "us" are that she is talking about, then you will understand the statement.
