  • 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.

    Caution - Twists In Road & Detour Ahead

    And I am not talking about that cool little hole in the wall community in the Upper Peninsula.

    Four weeks out from the general election, and we may have a problem with a double digit lead that Rick Snyder has, over Virg Bernero.  Snyder's lead through Rasmussen as of a couple weeks ago was 13 points, and it is unlikely (barring a name and gender change along with a discovery he is a Canadian plant)  that Rick Snyder will drop below the 50 point mark.  Private polling commissioned by a political source shows the lead may have grown even more.  

    And it presents more of a problem for Republicans than Democrats.

    Insert record scratch here?

    In an unusual attempt to blurr and difference between two of the five candidates for Michigan Governor, republican candidate Rick Snyder took an amazing position today.

    Four weeks of paid vacation every year!

    Free this!

    Free that!

    Hey, do you want me to throw in a 72" DLP and PS3 to go with that as well?

    It amazes me when I hear the "promises" made by the various politicians.

    However, this one is a doozy, and illustrates again why this particular politician is not fit for the office that he seeks.

    Because of formatting I had to leave the complete article over at MTTM

    But it seems there was more to the story than what the MSM is telling us when Virg Bernero "crashed" Rick Snyder's town hall event.  VERY revealing!!

    A Civil Affair

    A debate is certainly something that would be interesting, were it to happen between the Republican Gubernatorial Choice, and the Democrat Virg Bernero.  The colorful Bernero would undoubtedly get a few news making audio clips, and to be sure this blog would have some fun with them as well.  Perhaps even with a dual edged perspective.

    But it appears it won't happen.  At least not anytime soon.  And Bernero is not afraid of a little name calling:

    Michigan gubernatorial candidate Virg Bernero went on the attack against his Republican opponent on Sunday in Ann Arbor, calling Rick Snyder a "wimp" for backing out of debates.

    "You know, he's refused to debate," Bernero told a crowd of about 100 people gathered inside the Michigan Union. "Apparently not only is he a nerd, but a wimp."

    Ouch.. that hurts!  Not.

    In front of a friendly crowd, he might be encouraged, even expected to ad hominem a bit.  Certainly the respect level from such a crowd will be greater when the vitriol level goes up.  Those people feed on poison.  Ask GWB for the last 8 years.

    Some politicos, with Bernero as no exception do not understand that the ugly should be left in the realm of the blogs however.  Even I have taken a swipe of two (or three)at Snyder, but unless he has some secret polling that completely redefines his "angry base" from what is publicly known, he (Bernero) will not get any traction that way.

    Governor Virg Bernero

    If that does not raise the hair on the nape, nothing will. ..My fingers started bleeding as I typed it.

    This election cycle has all the elements of becoming a disaster for Michigan.  After November, we have the distinct possibility of becoming the stone age capitol of the nation.  Thuggishness and head thumping could rule, as union interests finalize their takeover of government with someone who is even MORE beholding to them than Jennifer Granholm.  

    You like the Minimum wage?  Expect it to be double.  A "living wage" is what those who would make the Lansing Mayor our executive want.  Never mind the ability to pay for it.  Never mind that the 25% unemployment we now have (YES its really that)would triple.  There would be a lot of good hearted government types to take care of us..  till we carry with us the last vestige of "wealth", (our sole-less shoes) and make our way across the border to a state less inclined to lead paint consumption, and oxygen deprivation.. and closed head injuries.

    How might this happen?  Seriously, how on earth might this meat puppet of organized labor find his way to the governor's mansion?  Even with the deep pockets of Soros, and his SOS project, and the most corruptible union element at his disposal, most folks would agree that Bernero is too far into the netherworld of leftist dreams to be considered seriously.  

    Believe it or not, One man (and its not Bernero) can cause this apocalyptic event to occur..  If you are curious, read on..

    Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, and John (MR Monica) Conyers, both lefty SE Michigan Democrats have teamed up to provide Lansing mayor Virg Bernero with critical endorsements sure to put him over the top against Andy Dillon of Redford Township in the Democrat gubernatorial Bid.  Both Conyers and Kilpatrick are Incumbent Congress critters with family members embroiled in one legal matter or another.. or another..

    The Ivory Tower confirming the endorsements with the following report:

    "Guys.. I just gakked!"

    Or something like that.  Then someone got a discount on their insurance.

    Anyhow, both endorsers are uniquely qualified to provide the much needed assistance to the Bernero campaign.  Its rumored they are quite willing to offer their special "good will" to the Dillon camp if Bernero doesn't cut the mustard with at least 21.35% of the Democrat primary vote Aug 03.

    ...

    Hey.. someone else just got a discount on their insurance.
