Once again a Catholic bishop, one of 121, made headlines in politics. Criticizing a Senate bill that partially would automate the 2007 elections, he sneered that electronic counters will not keep the voting clean for a change; it’s only people who will. The bishop officially spoke for his colleagues, so presumably they agree with him. The most vocal of them in fact habitually belittle efforts to improve any system, moralizing instead that only change in individuals can make things better.
