I seriously doubt that.
It is disturbing that a person incapacitated by stress would even run for President of The United States of America.
Exatly. Too many people are willing to dismiss Bachmann over the silliest things.
First I was impressed with Bachmann.
Then I gave her money.
Then she hired Ed Rolins and he trashed Sarah Palin.
Then I sent her a critical letter about Ed Rolins.
Then I found out the details about her 23 mentally ill foster kids. I gave up on her at this point.
Then I found out about the incapacitating migraines.
She has no business running unless she is an intentional stalking horse for Sarah. I am hoping Sarah will be announcing next week.
“..I am hoping Sarah will be announcing next week..”
On this we can agree!
..I think she is awaiting a VP or secofstate or senate bid.”
VP, no way. Her supporters are like cruise missiles, flying under the radar just before detonating (ie entering the race). Nobody in the race is gaining any real traction right now. It’s like, “huh, is that all we’ve got.”
“Oh .. gee thanks for that insightful post and commentary. It had everything to do with my point. /s”
You should understand that my post was an indicator that you had no point. This thread pointed out that there are a lot of correspondence course quack doctors posting.
Obama and Clinton have had news reported sinus headaches and both said they suffered severe sinus infections. With Obama this was in year one. He may be on the best of the best meds now and not suffer. With the best health care on the planet and a private MD as POTUS (as Bachmann would get)But if a man POTUS gets a headache and lays down it is somehow okay but not for Bachmann?If a POTUS is awakened they are all groggy. An MD at Bachmann’s hip if needed can prescribe a reliever that does not knock her out. If a POTUS is knocked out for surgery or local anesthesia that is what the VP is for. (Bush did this when he went under for a colonoscopy) And he didn't have to. If a POTUS is sleeping to rid a headache they can be awakened as I am sure no MD would give a POTUS anything strong enough to knock them out where they can’t wake up.
Do men POTUS’ report personal meds they take for not being able to sleep or a headache? Most men knock out for two days on benedryl and that is ok because they are men.Women can’t be sick, take benedryl’s (as this could incapacitate them) or take a nap? Men go through change of life and have hormonal inbalance that is just fine women do and they can’t work?
And you sound like an oddball.
If this is no big deal then way all the illogical contortions and emotional angst you are suffering?
You posted at least 14 times in this thread.
I don’t need to repeat myself for an oddball.
This is bad.
I am sorry did I go to sleep last night and miss Palin gaining independent voters, any good poll standings (Perry is not officially announced and like it or not is the poll winner of the week) and stealing Perry’s momentum, electorate GOP backers and money to run? I have seen comments like yours over the months say there is no way Palin would go VP then in the next thread say Perry was all of a sudden not a RINO because he could pick Palin because she endorsed him. As well as Palin saying she would be ObameyCare Romney’s VP in 2012.Then it will also all of a sudden be ok because she is carrying the right wing?Palin has until Aug 11 debate if she has any chance at all left.
Aha!
Make that 15!
LOL!
_take _a _pill.
16 now. And if you promise to go to DU and bash Bachmann for 15 hours I’ll post 15 more times so you can count them and get perturbed.
Illogical? There is no logic in bashing a good tea party candidate Bachmann and calling her unfit due to headaches so Palin or (PICK YOUR CANDIDATE) can have a shot.
To 61 - If it were Mrs Palin who suffered with migraines the Drones would insist that when she was incapacitated God’s hand would guide her until the pain was allayed.
A 12 pack of your favorite if Palin takes the 2nd spot on anybody’s ticket. Perry is not a RINO, but he is a pure politician and he has his share of waffles in his waffle iron, immigration, Arizona bill, private property confiscation, etc.
All that being said, if Palin doesn’t run, Perry has a better chance against Obummer than Bachmann. She’s a nice person and a solid conservative, but the press has been eating her alive and she would probably constantly be on the defensive. The best defense is a good offense. Perry has proven he knows how to go on offense.
As an aside, Romney is the worst of the batch excluding the other Mormon, NM ex-gov. and Paul. But, if he gets the nomination, I venture to say that 90% of FR members will vote for him (assuming no 3rd party candidate) rather than sit out the election, UNLESS they reside in a state where the state results are a foregone conclusion so they will have a legit excuse to sit it out.
I hope they have Shiner Bock in your locale so you can pay me in my favorite.
George and Barbara both have it, although I believe Barbara’s is worse.
A debilitating migraine knocks you out for 36 hours, tops. Even then, one can generally semi-function as long as they are in a dark room. There are legitimate reasons to not want to support Michele Bachmann, but this simply isn’t one of them.
You’re right; there’s plenty of reasons not to support Bachmann
