Michele Bachmann’s Migraines Leaves Her “Incapacitated.”

On Monday, The Daily Caller filed a report claiming that Michele Bachmann suffers from severe migraine headaches that have led to hospitalizations in the past, and leaving her “incapacitated.”  The online publication did not list their source for the information, but apparently, there are some truths to the report, as Bachmann herself rushed to set the record straight.

She did not deny the story, but said in a statement, “let me be abundantly clear – my ability to function effectively has never been impeded by migraines and will not affect my ability to serve as commander-in-chief.”

The report from The Daily Caller states,

The Minnesota Republican frequently suffers from stress-induced medical episodes that she has characterized as severe headaches. These episodes, say witnesses, occur once a week on average and can “incapacitate” her for days at time. On at least three occasions, Bachmann has landed in the hospital as a result.

In her statement, Bachmann says that her episodes are easily controlled:  “Like nearly 30 million other Americans, I experience migraines that are easily controlled with medication.”

Bachmann is running neck and neck with Mitt Romney for the Republican nomination to run against President Obama in 2012.

Although it’s unfortunate to hear of Bachmann’s suffering, one has to wonder how she would handle the rigorous demands of the Office of The President, when she can’t handle the two-week-work, one-week-off schedule of the House of Representatives.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
