Tinsel Wing: October 2006
http://tinselwing.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 26, 2006. Pocketbook voting in the pews. Much of the thesis of the bestselling. What's the Matter With Kansas? And much of the conventional wisdom of the left (yes, there is a left-wing CW, just as there's a very right wing "centrist" CW), is that evangelical Americans are a pack of Wal-Mart shoppers who keep voting for Republicans even though the Republicans keep taking them to the cleaners economically at every turn. Take a gander at this fascinating chart. Posted by nicteis at 4:02 PM.

The tempering of experience by hope | Tinsel Wing
https://tinselwing.wordpress.com/2008/07/06/the-tempering-of-experience-by-hope
Where feeble hope takes dream. Laquo; Handicapping the Tunguska event. The tempering of experience by hope. July 6, 2008. The FISA Amendments Act of 2008 (FISAAA, HR 6304), due to be voted on in the Senate on July 8, is a horror of a bill which essentially rips up the fourth amendment, leaving only sufficient shreds for Congress to clutch to its collective groin as a fig leaf. A quick summary of some of its bad features may be found on this ACLU webpage. Very nicely cross-linked with HTML.]. 1) Covers &#...

Where feeble hope takes dream. Laquo; The triumph of experience over hope. The tempering of experience by hope. Handicapping the Tunguska event. June 29, 2008. This isn’t the “all manner of thing will be well” post I adumbrated. It’s a stray FISA thought brought on by a scientific anniversary. Every so often,. Publishes a themed issue. For 26 June, the theme is astronomical collisions. I don’t know if that’s his reasoning. (For that matter, I don’t know whether the congressional lea...Tagged Add new tag.

A long look at John “greasy palm” McCain | Tinsel Wing

Where feeble hope takes dream. Laquo; Darwinism proven by Bible Code methods. The triumph of experience over hope. A long look at John “greasy palm” McCain. February 24, 2008. Left and right, commentators appear to be in agreement that the NYT made a lousy call placing the emphasis in its McCain story on the rather slippery rumors of “romantic” overtones between the Senator and the Siren. 8221; in a crowded political theater. Decry it as you will, ears then prick up for miles around. In May of ’07 ...

Where feeble hope takes dream. Laquo; A long look at John “greasy palm” McCain. Handicapping the Tunguska event. The triumph of experience over hope. June 24, 2008. So much for hope. Barack in a stroke managed to transform my anger into something very like despair. Today, a seemingly unrelated story broke that strengthens the temptation. It was this one. The publication of the first report. My next post (if I get around to posting) will look more closely at III (301), and present the devil’s advoca...

Tinsel Wing: December 2006

Tuesday, December 19, 2006. In which I continue to inflict my old poems on my readers. This impertinent snippet never had a title, but if it had, it would probably have been "Entire Sanctification".

Tinsel Wing: September 2006
http://tinselwing.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 14, 2006. The Diebold Hackuvote TS. Princeton, once home to sublime interactions between Kurt Goedel and Albert Einstein, keeps on keeping on. Most recently, they issued a report on the craptastic "Diebold Accuvote TS". That's TS as in: "You thought we were going to count your vote? Tough Shit, Eliot.". Visit their site. Watch the video. The virus Princeton wrote cleans up neatly after itself. Not a trace of any kind is left to indicate that the votes were jiggered. I love a Parade.

Tinsel Wing: March 2006
http://tinselwing.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 31, 2006. Could show me so divine a thing,. Where feeble hope could ne'er have flown,. But vainly flap'd its tinsel wing. I tend to think of the world as a marvelous place, populated by billions of glasses, each of which is nine tenths empty. I toyed with naming the site "Pickle Lips Now". But in the battle for a name, the thing with feathers won out over my sour puss. Posted by nicteis at 8:27 PM. It is better to keep silent and be thought a fool, than to. oh, the heck with it.
