How Bad Are Bachmann’s Headaches?
fox news ^ | 7/20/11 | Steve Brown

Posted on 07/20/2011 11:25:13 AM PDT by Nachum

A campaign spokesperson for presidential candidate Michele Bachmann says a report documenting the severity of the Minnesota congresswoman's migraines is overblown. But, there has been at least one admitted instance of Bachmann being sidelined for days due to a severe migraine and other instances of her falling ill on the House floor.

In an article posted by The Daily Caller Monday night, un-named sources described Bachmann's migraines as regular and debilitating, often interrupting her work schedule.

Alice Stewart, national press secretary for Bachmann's White House bid, joined the campaign in mid-June, and Stewart says she has seen no evidence of migraines disrupting the aggressive schedule.

"We've been going six, seven events a day," says Stewart, "(Bachmann) has not missed a single event due to her headaches."

Stewart confirms Bachmann does get headaches occasionally, but "they are manageable with medication."

I’d be wiling to wager that over the course of a four year term in office, Ms. Bachmann would lose less time to her occasional headaches than ‘The One’ will lose to smoke breaks.

I hope their collective damn heads explode.

If ever anything was a tempest in a teapot, this is it.

Lincoln functioned with Marfan’s Syndrome and Clinton probably had accute priaprism. Kennedy was a sex addict. Nixon had illusions.

Bachmann would make a great candidate and an even better President, which is why the RINO establishment like Rove, is gunning for her.

This is such BS, I am far more worried about Obama’s pathological narcissism clouding his judgment than Bachman’s headaches

“O” can step into the WH with all the objectionable ‘baggage’ he carries, all his in competencies, all the questions about his background, etc.... and THAT'S OK!

But the media is worried about the fitness for office of a Conservative candidate (WITH a demonstrated record for competency and ability) who gets headaches???

I read somewhere that an unnamed source said she tells her husband she has a headache on a regular basis, usually around bedtime.

The GOP is really lame. Why are they trying to save all the socialist programs for the socialists. Makes no sense. Unless they too are socialists. Hell let the socialists self destruct.

You might recall that the Huckster threw a fit when Glenn Beck rightfully called him a progressive. The fact is that progressivism infects both sides of the aisle.

Those on the right are trying to protect their turf.

Migraine Relief - Naturally!

Migraine is a complicated condition, however many cases are the result of significant imbalances within multiple systems in your body.
Our clinical experience has shown us that migraine headaches are often a result of a multi-system physiologic imbalance. Dzugan Method works to optimize five physiologic systems - including balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system, hormonal metabolism, serotonin/melatonin, magnesium balance and optimization of the gastrointestinal system.

When these systems are brought back into their natural balance, migraines can be eliminated and this approach can have many positive “side benefits”...

I doubt Michelle’s headaches would keep her out of the oval office nearly as often as golf does for Obama.

Or certainly his weekly golf outings. What a waste. Someone should tabulate the cost to the taxpayers for his golf addiction.

Would this be an issue if she was a male?

You know as well as I do that the RNC cannot be accused of being at all conservative.

Its been documented that such headaches are a long-term affect on brides eating their wedding cake.

I’ll take my chances with her pain in the head than 4 more years of that pain in the ass president we have now.
