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.

Oh Heck No - Call To Action

Ain't gonna happen. Not on our watch.

We have this one guy, out there fighting the REAL fight in congress. Taking on conventional wisdom, lobbying idiocy, and the looters that abound. Fighting for the well being of our constitution!

No one has been doing it as well as Justin Amash.

No one has taken the controversial (and correct) positions like Amash has done, while taking the time to explain the reasoning for the votes. Few seem to be looking to the constitution first, then voting in a manner that is consistent and within its rules like Amash. And if anyone thinks the crazy left, and its hand picked tool is going to take away the one guy who actually DOES his job without a fight? They have another think coming.

Kids, its time to break out the pop bottles, and trash the piggy bank again. From the Detroit News:

" Pestka of Grand Rapids was up 34.9 percent to 33.8 percent for Amash of Cascade Township, according to a live operator poll of 400 likely voters conducted Wednesday and Thursday by Glengariff Group. Inc."

Bad, but not terrible unless we let it matter.

There are also 29 percent reporting undecided. Which means it is a matter of messaging from now till then. Messaging which can only be done with cash on hand.

The Democrats would love to steal this seat from our constitutional conservative, and they are likely buying any ad time they can get their hands on .. right now. Losing Amash in CD3 at this critical juncture would not only be a blow to Michigan, but to conservative Republicans everywhere.

You know what needs to be done. Start by going here.
