I have been a classic migraine sufferer since I was a naive gay boy of eleven years old. I vividly remember my initial headaches - they were classic migraines with auras followed by mindblowing headaches that would send me to bed for up to two days at a crack.  The pain was so intense that I would literally pound my skull against the headboard to try to somehow divert the agony I was experiencing.  I was nauseous and also extremely sensitive to any light.   I was, in other words, totally disabled.

So, leaving aside whether Michele Bachmann is actually qualified to be president (not to mention whether Marcus is qualified to be First Lady - sorry, I couldn't help myself!), the question remains: Could disabling migraines like those described above - especially resistant to today's prescribed medications - be enough to question any woman or man's ability to perform the duties of the Commander in Chief?  The answer is, of course, yes.
