Wouldn't it be really nice if we could give all of the politicians our IBS and let them experience what WE THE PEOPLE actually experience? Such might even put a damper on their $500+ a plate unhealthy rich foods that we the people are paying for in taxes. If they had IBS it would and ultimately send them to the bathroom doubled over in painful cramps and misery themselves. We then would be able to eat anything we want. How 'bout that?

Am I being mean or what? I don't think so, just realistic here! Politicians and even doctors who don't have a clue as to what we are actually suffering and heading off daily need a wakeup call somewhere, don't they?

I have to wonder if Senator McCain would be an immediate advocate of supporting funds to study prostate cancer, testicular cancer, the benefits of Viagra, etc.? You bet he would!!!

Her local office is right next to where I work, so I could talk to her people anytime. I just thought a face-to-face would have more impact.

Yep, Gari! Men in legislative /political roles will support just about anything that supports their own God-given nature and mentality to procreate (absent conception), and you know what I mean. They could care less about IBS, and I'm sure we'd all like to GIFT them freely our IBS as a taste of REAL misery! Then perhaps they would consider some more serious other things than their own selfish desires at the expense of others and taxpayers at that.

Wouldn't we all like to attend a steak and lobster meal at $500+ per plate paid for by the government (our tax money) to discuss the lack of merit of IBS education and not suffer from having done so?

I personally hope they all get the 'runs' at some point!!! How dumb are they anyway? Obviously they are not too bright, lack compassion, and have ignorant medical input from the uneducated that is not reality.

Why WOULD they care?... they don't have it! I literally want to GROWL at the misinformed!

lol Well, maybe McCain is plugged and doesn't want to say so. I don't know Windchimes, I am sure women do their share of damage in government. Although, I will say that men have had control much longer and have had more time to do more damage.
