  • Your New Scoop Site

    Welcome to Scoop!

    To help you figure things out, there is a Scoop Admin Guide which can hopefully answer most of your questions.

    Some tips:

    • Most of the layout is changed in "Blocks", found in the admin tools menu
    • Features can be turned on and off, and configured, in "Site Controls" in the admin tools menu
    • Stories have an "edit" link right beside the "Full Story" link on an index page, and right beside the "Post a Comment" link on the full story page. They can also be edited by clicking the story title in the "Story List" admin tool
    • Boxes are what allow you to write new features for Scoop; they require a knowledge of the perl programming language to work with effectively, although you can often make small changes without knowing much perl. If you would like a feature added but cannot program it yourself, ScoopHost does custom Scoop programming as one of its services.
    • If you aren't sure where to look for a particular feature or piece of display, try the "Search Admin Tools" link in the admin tools menu.

    Backpattery & Bloviating

    Team Snyder doesn't give two whits about the constitution, perspective of GOP objectives, or the platform of the party.

    What an incredible opportunity this 'shutdown' offers us, yet all that they can come up with is self congratulatory political 'twerking'. Rather than applaud a stand for what most republicans profess as their principles, the nerd sycophant unit offers underhanded criticism to the one thing that is going as it should.  Greg McNeilly self proclaimed 'decider' of whom might be an "invasive species", or "Malcontent, magpie", et.. Falls short of identifying the Obama/Reid cabal which has in fact been solely responsible for the shutdown in DC:

    "There could not be a stronger contrast between the actions of Gov. Snyder and the House and Senate Republicans and the irresponsibility of Washington, D.C. politicians.  Michigan's responsible leaders balanced the budget months ahead of schedule, put money aside for a rainy day and still ended up with a surplus.

    "Gov. Snyder and our leadership in the Legislature have done a tremendous job building a solid foundation for Michigan's economic recovery.  As the state continues to grow, we will count on them to continue the smart, fiscally sound policies that have brought Michigan back."

    This from a press release about an hour ago.

    Gosh Greggie, we are so impressed! And NOBODY not everybody had to pay higher taxes for it! Michigan should be PROUD to have the 47th best climate for business in the country! By Obama's accounting that means we are better than 11 others, but for normal folks a modest 3 is good enough though, right?  What happens I wonder to the wonderful Medicaid/welfare expansion that will not be funded if the GOP is successful in holding the line?  Will the governor be able to pull back enough to get maybe 48th?

    Real leadership like this deserves an award.

    Will a burning paper bag with mystery contents (hint .. you might want to use an old shoe to stomp it out.) outside the front door be sufficient?
