WTF? Teresa's cure for Arthritis: Gin and White Raisins?
2004-10-15
Drudge - breaking
TERESA SHARES REMEDY FOR ARTHRITIS AT CAMPAIGN STOP: 'You get some gin and get some white raisins — and only white raisins — and soak them in the gin for two weeks. Then eat nine of the raisins a day'...

For an extremely rich loony bag-lady, she's a peach. I hope they never shut her up.....lol!

#35  So it has come to this: the most heavily commented article on Rantburg today is Tarayza's arthritis cure. I'm sure she's feeling no pain. I can hardly wait for this election to be over.

#34  Ã‚ I've heard ordinary gin won't do - it has to be Gordon's.

That's all Tarayza drinks. All day long.

#29  Being British by birth (and American by choice) I have always believed in the medicinal and therapeutic value of gin. I have never been afflicted with arthritis however, and I believe that the first lush lady self-designate has an obligation to provide some clinical evidence.

#28  Talisker's OK. Dalhwinnie is lovely. Haven't tried the others. Laphroaig tastes like iodine. Can't account for all tastes.

#27  Tanqueray is considered the best gin.

#26  Talisker, neat. Lagavullin will do, too. Or Oban in a pinch

#25  ANY gin is good gin? What is this, an anglophile? Phuii! Maybe good for cleaining grease off car rims, but... 12 year old single malt Scotch - Macallan's to be specific. Drink of the gods.

#24  Just wait until you hear her cure for spinal cord injury John Edwards has been bragging about.

#23  "Sounds like a way to ruin some perfecly good gin, assuming there is such a thing."

Ahem. **ANY** gin is perfectly good gin.

#22  One of the problems with THK's theory is that a lot of arthitis patients take over the counter pain killers.

Having a lot of gin with these can be a problem. In particular, if you drink heavily and take tylenol, its a big strain on the liver.

#21  One of the doctors here can probably correct me on this if I'm wrong, but doesn't alcohol in general make many forms of arthritis worse?

#20  What's with the raisins? Sounds like a way to ruin some perfecly good gin, assuming there is such a thing.

#19  My question is, with her money and complete separation from reality, how did she find out about it?

Probably growing up in Mozambique.

#18  If/when Bush wins in a couple of weeks, can the T-lady be found a position as White House Jester?

The only position 'T' wants to be in is while wearing a strap-on.

#14  She must have gotten it from 'cesarean-sections-cure-palsy' John Edwards....

Junk science just like their junk 'Plans'....

#13  Make that 8 days.

#12  1. I LIKE white raisins. Like whats your problem?

2. Gin. Well i usually go easy on that. But between Bush and Kerry, thats pretty good reason for more gin right there.

#9  After 8 weeks of the Heinz-Kerry treatment you reach the magical 72 virgin raisins and spontaneously blow up.

#5  RACIST RACIST RACIST!

WHITE RAISINS

#4  Actually, that's been around for quite a while. It seems to work for some people, though no one knows why.

My question is, with her money and complete separation from reality, how did she find out about it?

It's more a remedy for the "little people."

#3  Hmm the Dim health plan perhaps. Ok let's bleed the patient for a while.

#2  dunno - he's not linking to a source yet, but I saw that and my jaw hit the space bar....white raisins??? Gin explains a lot of her fugue states on the stage
