EASTON, Md, July 25, 2011 — Each week, no, each day, so much happens on the political scene, lots of it goofy, lots of it scary, and lots of it just human nature unleashed. What’s a blogger to do?
Starting this week, I will highlight some of the more inane, insane, or just plain politics and call it Political Fodder. This is the stuff that can propel George Will to rhapsodic punditry or Jon Stewart to sardonic heights. This is what makes writing about politics and politicians fun, when I’m not wringing my hands in despair.
Bachmann's High Heels Trigger Migraines
Michele Bachmann had a bad week and she didn’t even suffer a migraine. First, her former staffers betrayed her, talking to Conservative blog, The Daily Caller, about her incapacitating migraine headaches.
Then her staff “roughed up” ABC journalist Brain Ross asking about those headaches.
Next she said her high heels caused migraines. Since we see her more times in heels than without, her life must be one long headache. Of course, claiming this as her excuse had the media and nearly everyone else in stitches. Just more Bachmann junk science.
Wait a minute: give the woman a break. The darnednest things can ignite migraines: coffee, bright lights, certain foods, and, of course, stress, all of which Bachmann as a candidate has in spades.
