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.

I don't think I am the only one to greet Mitt Romney's announcement that he will be seeking the presidency with a total yawn. Neither exciting nor a practical change agent, Romney represents ALL that is wrong with moderate Republicanism.

Perhaps I could sum it up in one word: "Romneycare"

Add to this, he has already misjudged 60% of the primary electorate by coming out of the gate saying he believes Obama is a legit president, or at least that he is a citizen.

"I think the citizenship test has been passed. I believe the president was born in the United States. There are real reasons to get this guy out of office ..."

First off, count me as somewhat of a birther. Or at least as one who believes like that crazy-like-a-fox Trump, that Obama has some issues tied with the birth record he has spent gawd-awful amounts of money hiding. Not a good enough reason on its face? I mean seriously Mitt, 60% of people who voted with the Republicans think he wasn't born here. And as to the citizenship test, which one was that? Are you simply trying to not be skewered by the media that you expect to put you in as a McCain type who was easily controlled for 2012?

Controllable and easily manipulated. What a weasel. If he wins the primary, we will have another term of the worst president ever, because people will again sit on their hands. He would probably sell us out like Bush did when the bank situation arose anyhow. No principle whatsoever. No personal constitution.

This time we need to take a real look at the 'posers' like Romney, Gingrich, and even Huckabee who wouldn't do what needs to be done. Talk a great talk, but look at their records. At least Huckabee would be likely to look at a Fair Tax. I could vote for him. Even with him saying Obama grew up in Kenya, when we all know his childhood was spent in Indonesia.

Problem with that? See the "57 states" comment by the guy who is our current white house occupant. Actually, Kindergarten is where we learn how many states there are. Some of us actually might have learned about how Puerto Rico and Guam fit into the scheme too. But the dweller of 1600 Pennsylvania avenue never picked that up apparently.

And that occupant has a lot of questions that have yet to be answered. ~ more below ~
