In late July 2010, Rep. Michele Bachmann’s then-communications director, Dave Dziok, told his boss that he planned to take a new job with the public relations firm Edelman. Dziok had worked for Bachmann for two and a half years, a relatively long period by the standards of her office, and was leaving on good terms. Staff turnover can frustrate any employer, but Bachmann responded more dramatically. Dziok’s departure triggered a debilitating medical episode that landed the congresswoman in urgent care. “Within 24 hours she was in the hospital,” a former aide says. Bachmann was admitted to a Washington, D.C. hospital on Friday, July 30, and released that same day. She flew home to Minnesota to recuperate, missing a scheduled campaign event with Sen. Roy Blunt. It’s “nothing folks should worry about going forward,” Dziok told reporters at the time, refusing to specify why Bachmann had been hospitalized. It was, according to three people who have worked closely with Bachmann, not an isolated event. (Bachmann signs ‘Cut, Cap, and Balance’ pledge, adds promise to defund Obamacare) 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. “She has terrible migraine headaches. And they put her out of commission for a day or more at a time. They come out of nowhere, and they’re unpredictable,” says an adviser to Bachmann who was involved in her 2010 congressional campaign. “They level her. They put her down. It’s actually sad. It’s very painful.” Bachmann’s medical condition wouldn’t merit public attention, but for the fact she is running for president. Some close to Bachmann fear she won’t be equal to the stress of the campaign, much less the presidency itself. “When she gets ‘em, frankly, she can’t function at all. It’s not like a little thing with a couple Advils. It’s bad,” the adviser says. “The migraines are so bad and so intense, she carries and takes all sorts of pills. Prevention pills. Pills during the migraine. Pills after the migraine, to keep them under control. She has to take these pills wherever she goes.” To staff, Bachmann has implausibly blamed the headaches on uncomfortable high-heel shoes, but those who have worked closely with her cite stress, a busy schedule and anything going badly for Bachmann as causes. Alice Stewart, a spokeswoman for Bachmann, said ”she suffers from migraines and they’re under control with medicine.” Stewart contested descriptions of the episodes as “incapacitating” Bachmann but did not specify how the descriptions were wrong. “The information you have is incorrect,” Stewart said. She declined to discuss Bachmann’s hospital visits at all, saying, “I’m not going to go into her medical history.” On the evening of May 13, 2010, Bachmann flew to Los Angeles for a series of political and fundraising events. In part because of complications with her flight schedule, Bachmann’s mood plunged. During the entire six-hour flight, she was desperately sick from headaches. (Perry, Bachmann lead in July Daily Caller/Conservative Home tracking poll) Her husband, Marcus Bachmann, met his wife at LAX and ushered her to a nearby urgent care center. Though Bachmann managed to attend several events in California, including an appearance before a California chapter of the Eagle Forum and a fundraiser in Palm Springs, she struggled through the weekend, in pain throughout. On October 19, 2010, Bachmann fell apart at a Greenwich, Conn., fundraiser at the home of Craig Stevenson, CEO of Diamond S Shipping. She was put in a bed at Stevenson’s home and later checked into an urgent care facility near LaGuardia Airport. Back in February 2006, Bachmann checked into the hospital for what a press release called “an appendicitis attack,” according to an archive of her website. “Michele felt very well immediately after the surgery but then suffered from complications, including nausea and intense migraines,” the press release reads. Of particular concern to some around her is the significant amount of medication Bachmann takes to address her condition. The former aide says Bachmann’s congressional staff is “constantly” in contact with her doctors to tweak the types and amounts of medicine she is taking. Marcus Bachmann helps her manage the episodes. Sources who spoke to The Daily Caller said they did so because they are terrified about the impact the condition could have on Bachmann’s performance if she actually became president. They also worry that the issue could blow up in the general election campaign, giving President Obama an easy path to re-election. “It’s a careful choice of words I used: ‘incapacitated,’” the adviser says. “As president, when she’s in crisis management mode, is she going to have the physical ability to withstand the most difficult challenges facing America?” the former aide asks. TheDC agreed to provide the sources anonymity because they were providing information only a select group of people could know, at great professional risk. Two sources independently provided detailed accounts of Bachmann’s condition. A third source confirmed that Bachmann frequently suffers from debilitating headache episodes.
Poster Comment: This should have come out months ago. The MSM is covering up for the physical defects of presidents (Roosevelt, Kennedy, Clinton, Obama) and would-be presidents with no shame.

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one. "Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters." ~ Ben Franklin "For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth, to know the worst, and to provide for it.” ~ Patrick Henry
They used to have a pill in Brazil that was like a miracle for migraines. They were called Ormigrein but last I heard they had quit making them (don't know why and they could have started again). If she has any contacts there who could check and send her some of those, assuming that they could get them, she might get a lot of relief in a very short time--although they didn't do it every time there were times when I could take a couple of those and my headache would be gone in about an hour.
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Lord Acton He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic. The only difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has it's limits. Albert Einstein
Is there a difference? Seen one jew-fellator, you seen 'em all.
It appears that if you took away her pills she would be reduced to a quivering blob of jello on the floor. She needs to pull the plug on her presidential campaign to spare herself any more embarassment.
As a former migraine-sufferer, I certainly empathize with her. A dentist-fitted nightguard twenty years back stopped them immediately, and I've not suffered one since.

She seems to be the perfect candidate. I was worried they wouldn't be able to find someone at least an order of magnitude worse than O'boingo. Israel first, foremost and only? Check. Wracked with the mental illness of zionism to the point that she can't function? Check. The jews get to have a good laugh at foisting the first woman president on us, like they did with the first nigga? Check. She's perfect.

I used to have totally debilitating migraines, so I have some sympathy. Then I had 2 disks in my neck removed and replaced with a titanium plate. Much better now. A lot of migraines can be headed off with a family of drugs called the tryptans which are great because they do not cloud the mind. Medicines to prevent migraines are freqenly in the beta-blocker family of high blood pressure meds. These meds also do not cloud the mind. The real damage occurs when a headache person becomes dependent on narcotics. This is appalling, because narcotics destroy lives. I totally do not accept modern pain relief medicine using heavy narcotics. Young people become locked into disability, they become diverted and sold on the street, and the overdoses overwhelm medical facilities. Ick..ick..ick! I spent all last night with an OD. I suspect she eats pills by the handfull. She will compensate by coming down hard on other people using drugs. The war on drugs will escalate. Give me Ron Paul anytime.
She's most likely a functioning addict. I'm coming down hard on her because her medical condition renders her incapable of performing as Commander-in-Chief around the clock. She appears to have risen to the highest level she can be trusted to with that condition. Oh, I'm for Ron Paul, also :p
She's a zio-RaptureNutter. Rivero's got a couple articles up about her rapture-ravings. 100% pure kosher Kuckoo, Kuckoo! AKA Mallethead with tits.
========================================================== That leaves Romney and Palin.

fixed!! Ron Paul is the only sane person running and the GOP will give the election to The Halfrican before they let Ron Paul even get a glimpse of victory.
This woman is manic depressive. All the key words are being used to describe her condition. "they LEVEL her, they put her down," "Bachman's mood plunged." "significant amount of medication." She is taking a cocktail of drugs to control her mood swings and migraines are a common symptom of bipolar disorder. Stress can trigger, or kindle a sudden mood swing that can include paranoia, sleeplessness, and hallucinations. Just the person we need, with her finger on the switch. KABOOM!
It is vital to understand that there is no truth without discernment and no wisdom without the truth. What then is “faith” but an effort to confound truth and wisdom?
