  • 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.

    For support, questions, and general help with Scoop, email support@scoophost.com

    ScoopHost.com is currently running Scoop version Undeterminable from .

    Need We Say More?

    Expect that we will.

    But in the meantime, note that those young conservative stalwarts fighting for "truth and the American way, civil discourse (especially from 'bigot haters'), and eventual control of the Michigan GOP, are perfectly willing to use the tools of the left to draw support from the left.  Where else but the Obama 'petition' site is the calling out for Agema's Resignation. Using the site favored by low information voters for its pretense of reaching the president himself, One of the signers of the other petition, Timothy Maurer, "Greater Detroit Area Republican" has continued to advance such greatness as Homosexuality, destruction of family, spread of disease, and the neo-RINO mentality.

    Bravo young Maurer! Obama will invite you for a beer summit soon to discuss your 'concern'.

    What a champ!  What a hero to young Pizza munchers who want to be Republicans, but can't because they don't like personal responsibility, family values, the first amendment, or anything else that Republicans stand for!  What a supporter of strong families, and tradition, by holding Barack Obama's hand and opening up the internal debate of Michigan Republicans into a place where the left can emerge from the underbelly of our nation and weigh in with their agenda for advanced personal destruction.  Support as expressed by a [non-Republican] Jennifer from Holland:

    " I am not Republican, though I hold many of the values they proclaim to support: I believe in strong families, based in commitment to one another and their communities. I believe in helping those less fortunate than myself and allowing people to believe what they wish, as long as their beliefs do not cause harm or loss to others. I have been married for 13 years and we have a son we are raising to be a good human being. But you would deny me my family of 13 years simply because my spouse is another woman. ... "
    Ooooh snap!

    And that son will learn tolerance! And will learn how to be intolerant of intolerance to promote tolerance of the intolerable!

    Yes MR. Maurer, you seek "a big tent" with no walls. Am I right?  Is that what you desire?

    Bravo then, as you have found a way to do it by reaching out to those who are destroying the rest of the culture, energy, defense, budget, science, education, and last but not least, freedom of religion.

    MEA Proves Need For Freedom To Work - A Lesson

    Class is in session.

    I know public teachers who are Republican.  Quite a few in fact.

    So what, right?

    The point should not be lost that in any organization, there are political preferences that vary.  In any work environment, there are ideas that are different, and in the teaching environment, contrary to the wishes of progressives who would wish to program each generation of children with all manner of degenerate reasoning and backward analytical skills, there are conservative REPUBLICANS who simply wish to work , and teach and fill the minds of those children with what schools are for.

    Math, Science, Reading, and writing.  And maybe a little competition training through sports and debate.

    Unfortunately, those things, that are not enough for the progressive activities of the teachers unions, specifically the MEA, take a back seat to the unproductive pursuits of political goals by over zealous leftist activists within those unions.  The MEA and others like it, utilizing dues forced from Republicans within their membership work counter to the wishes of those members.

    And no further evidence of this is needed than what has been presented recently by the Michigan Republican Party

    A Message To Our Legislators - Beware False Choices

    Upton's Duck and Weave

    Cross-posted

    After being flogged by conservatives across the board on the banning of the incandescent light bulb, Congressman Fred Upton changes the subject.

    He posted an article on Right Michigan, saying, in part,

    The American people are fed up and demand that we tackle government spending and the federal budget deficit immediately. The days of the administration printing more money as a solution to meet budget shortfalls are now over.

    The American people, including many Michiganders are clearly fed up with the overreach of government as well.  Banning the incandescent light bulb was just the sort of thing that flipped the switch in most people's minds.

    The scientific argument against abortion

    This is the third post in a series focusing on the issue of pro-life leading up to the critical 2010 elections, which will be a turning point for Michigan and the nation. Life is constantly under attack. Not only the unborn, but also our seniors. We must arm ourselves with knowledge, and fight such devaluing as it affects us all as a society.

    Last week, I covered the moral pro-life argument against the murder of the innocent. In formulating the argument, I mentioned that we all live within the framework of certain laws. These are universal laws that were imposed by The Creator over which we have no control. There are several levels of natural laws, which in my estimation are as follows in order:

    1. Laws of logic
    2. Laws of mathematics
    3. Laws of science
    4. Moral Laws
    Since we covered the 4th last week, I will focus on the third in this post - laws of science. Let me ask a question: if someone in the middle of the night committed the theft of one of your kidneys, and was caught the next day with a tub full of kidneys, how would you prove that one of those was yours? Of course you could prove it conclusively with what is today a simple dna test. Your kidney, and in fact every cell in your body, is governed by a dna molecule that is uniquely your own. Before you existed, that dna strand never existed before, and once you're gone, it will never exist again.

    Science vs politics: Rep Conyers' war against open access

    (Promoted by Nick...)

    As a Catholic and a chemist nut, it bugs me every time people try to wedge science vs religion.  Of course, these are usually atheists who are using science as a champion against religion.  Frankly, the whole thing's absurd.  If you want to find a true enemy of science, there's only one place to look: politics.

    While there is plenty of evidence for this (see exhibits A, B, C, D... on global warming), today we're going to look at something seemingly minor, but is so totally unnecessary and stupid that one wonders why it comes up in the first place.  I give you Michigan's own Congressman John Conyers and his fight against open access of science.
