Sorry to say, but it really doesn’t matter. Bachman’s toast; been outed by some former employees as suffering from weekly, incapacitating, stress related migraine headaches. See: http://dailycaller.com/2011/07/18/stress-related-condition-incapacitates-bachmann-heavy-pill-use-alleged/

I just caught that at Drudge and came here to see what the response was. This is a major hit. Hmmm, wonder which candidate would benefit from this...

Ouch, not good. I have a family member with something similar...absolutely crippling headaches, usually related to air pressure (rather than stress). Migraine (with loads of caffeine) pills usually work but then they upset her stomach so lose/lose. Cant imagine it with all the stress of the presidency however.

Wrongo.

She has the problem but has found ways of dealing with it.

Are you serious? You only make yourself look clueless.

Michele Bachmann can run rings around you and nearly all the rest of us mortals in her career and other activities. The woman is a human dynamo.

And in the face of that unalterable truth that is there for all to see, we are supposed to believe she’s “toast” because she has migraines??

DUH...tell us, oh brilliant one...how did she get to where she is in life???

Hmmmmmmmmm?????

General Andrew Jackson had migraine headaches throughout his presidency, and I’ve never heard of a Democrat criticizing him, even with the Trail of Tears.

She is not “toast.”

She has accomplished amazing things in her life, and if she has headaches, she’s certainly found ways to do amazing things despite them.

Franklin Roosevelt could not walk, for Pete’s sake! That did not stop him from being president (not that he was a good one, mind you).

Ridiculous. Migraine suffering is not a disqualification for presidential service. Dual-citizenship, yes. Migraines, no. The very concept of being "outed" for having headaches is beyond dumb.

The O'Bummer has been giving all of us migraines the last couple of years... We survive. I'd hardly call this an obstacle in performing one's duties.
