When will sanity return to Congress?

Some Dems say they won't sign on to any agreement that touches Social Security or Medicare.  The Tea Partiers loudly declare their commitment to not supporting any bill that raises taxes.  Neither will publicly give an inch.  Stalemate.

The man in the street understands intuitively what will happen when the federal government fails to pay its bills.  If we don't pay our personal bills, then the next time we needs a loan, the rate will go up.   It's the same with Uncle Sam.  We understand that.  The polls show it.

Ours is not a form of government where one party alone determines what happens.  Compromise has worked well up until now.  Where are the adults in this matter?  Where?
