Who still has faith in this process?

This is nothing more than a chess match being played by both sides to rile up their respective bases.

It's nothing new. It's just the latest in a string of similar issues.

Members of both parties engage in dividing the American people to the point that we're arguing with friends, relatives and co-workers (if you have any) over issues that -- let's face it -- very few people, including those in government, really understand. Throw in some sure-fire social wedge issues and it's the perfect recipe for getting people angry at each other and taking their eye off the real ball in this game.

Meanwhile, the leaders of both parties and their bedmate fat-cats on Wall Street and in the corporate boardrooms, are running away with all our money.

Wake up.
