A Possible Debt Deat -- Our Sickness Revealed

And so, Washington reached a tentative agreement on the debt ceiling. Why don't I feel better? We are sick. I am amazed at how much time I have spent watching and reading about all of this -- another sign of the sickness. Regardless of how "the" vote goes tomorrow, the real question is whether or not this messy fracture in our governmenal processes will lead to true reform and vision for our country -- and I don't mean "Tea Party" reform or more misuse of power that continues to broaden the gap between the rich and the middle class --not to mention the poor. I am less and less confident. As I often ask, where is God in this? At the moment, I don't know, but I seriously doubt it is in D.C.
