  • 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.

    How the allegedly unbiased State AG hasn't raided Rakolta's Walbridge offices becomes... rather glaring.

    Aches and Reoccurring Payne's

    Want to see how Ronulans deep-six Rep. Bentivolio's reelection?  Chem-trails.

    "We'll bring in some Air Force folks right here in our district. We can have an oversight reform committee hearing right here and we'll investigate," said Bentivolio in response to an audience question. "I'd like to find out about it too."

    Oh, Lord.  Please Kerry, don't play with your vegetables.  We here at RM didn't bust our asses in 2012, just to have a few PaulTards in the crowd grenade us in 2014.

    But despite such embarrassing diversions the first-term Congressman, say political insiders, will be difficult to unseat in 2014 - even with last week's announcement that businessman [Foreclosure Lawyer] and Michigan Republican Party establishment favorite Dave Trott has thrown his hat into the ring. Such is the power of incumbency, and the deep pocketbooks of the GOP's insurgent Ron Paul/Libertarian wing that backs Bentiviolo.

    In the redrawn CD-11, I wouldn't be so cocksure as to hang my hat on "the power of incumbency".  Not in Oakland, and Wayne County's den of vipers, anyway.

    A Message To Our Legislators - Beware False Choices

    Hott To Trott

    Actually, I don't know a lot about this guy David Trott.

    He's announced he will be challenging Kerry Bentivolio in the CD11 Republican primary.  He apparently believes he can serve the district and the country better than the current incumbent, and I'm OK with a challenge on who can be the better conservative.  I've said it before, I LIKE primaries.

    "Crazy thought for a staunch conservative, right? Perhaps. But not if one has had the philosophical disagreements still within the framework of that conservatism. Not if those disagreements extend into Republican governance. Not if any particular conservative part of the constituency still feels his or her best representation is not being made."
    I say "bring it on!"

    But Dave? Make sure you really have a reason, please.

    If you feel its just your turn Mr Trott?  Stay home.  If you feel that several hundred thousand dollars in Michigan political campaigns over the last several years has earned you the seat, I disagree.  If you think however, that Kerry Bentivolio's record of defending the constitution is lacking, and you can make a case for it, do it here.

    Avoid it if it is for your bucket list please.
