Michele Bachmann Painted by Insiders as An Incapacitated Valley of the Doll

Michele Bachmann Painted by Insiders as An Incapacitated Valley of the Doll

Trying to knock her out, Michele Bachmann insiders say she is “incapacitated” often.

The image of a pill-popping, incapacitated Michele Bachmann is being painted today by “former aides”, “three people who have worked closely with Bachmann”, unnamed witnesses, an unnamed adviser, and “some around her”. I doubt it’s any coincidence that the Daily Caller is reporting this on the heels of the news that Michele Bachmann is the “Grand Old Party’s” new front runner, as they are all quite aware of her limitations against President Obama.

According to these sources, due to “stress”, Bachmann is shuttled in and out of emergency and urgent care, put to bed in CEO’s homes, and propped up by at least three different kinds of pills. Repeated use of the word “incapacitated” to describe Bachman’s “migraine headaches” is taken so far as to say the word is being used deliberately, as the adviser is “terrified about the impact the condition could have on Bachmann’s performance if she actually became president.”

1. Migraines aren't exactly a rare ailment............
Of course, I have them, and take a similar number of pills, so I suspect I'm not as easily convinced!

7. I had migraines. They were debilitating but went away in my 50s.
I could not work when I had a migraine. I was incapacitated for about 24 hours with each one. Had as many as 3 a week for some years (not every week).

2. Looks like the Republicans have kicked her under
the bus to get her out of the way. Making her look like a pill popping looney instead of just a looney might be their solution. Interesting how they suddenly dredged up these "former aides" all at once to disclose all of this.
