Silent Monks Singing December 27, 2020 Turns out there definitely were dead people voting in Pennsylvania. Two. As reported here, one was for Trump. The other was in heavily-Trump Luzerne County, so may well have been cast for Trump also (the article doesn’t say). The third known instance of Pennsylvania voter fraud — out of 8 million votes cast — involved a registered Republican who voted once himself, then returned with sunglasses attempting to vote as his son. The truth, of course, is that voter fraud is rare — and more likely to be committed by Trump zealots than Biden zealots. Because (you’re way ahead of me) there are no Biden zealots. But isn’t that a good thing? Demagoguery enflames, divides, corrupts, and destroys. Decency, dignity, empathy, and competence offer promise of brighter days ahead. Speaking of which: THE DAYS ARE GETTING LONGER! Things are looking up! Trump supporters speak out. One minute. Giant Japanese xylophone. Two minutes. Wonderful. (Thanks, Steve.) I hope you had a great Christmas. Have you ever heard the silent monks sing Hallelujah? I’m 12 years late with this, so I figure what’s another couple of days? I especially love when they get to LORD OF LORDS. (Thanks, Ed!) Is it too early to wish a wonderfully Happy New Year?
