Editors' Follow-up Note:  Here's a thought that we had about this issue on the morning of January 7th: 

Jan. the sixth, 'twenty-five, came and went,

A perfunctory D.C. event.

Quickly vote counts were tallied

(No rioters rallied)

Pent-up anger it seems had been spent.

Yet our hearts cry out, "Sinners, repent!"

Happy New Year ... Your blog-editors.
