Slashdot Goes Political: Announcing politics.slashdot.org
With the US Presidential Election coming up, we've had a lot of story submissions that we would like to post, but they don't fit very well on the Slashdot main page. To address this, we'll be running special political coverage between now and the election in our new Politics subsection of Slashdot. Please submit stories directly to the section for consideration.
As with all sections on Slashdot,
there will be stories available within that section that don't get posted to the main page, so please visit the section if you are interested in more coverage.
We'll do our best to be fair with story selection. We think we can do a good job since the Slashdot editors represent a diverse spectrum of political ideologies. The discussions are up to you guys. Here's hoping the experiment works!
At least the color scheme isn't too bad. But shouldn't that be a communist flag flying?
Oh wait... this isn't Kuro5hin
Is there a socialist flag?
Notice the logo? Why is it US-centric? Why can't it be Dan-Dan-centric?
FP for my bro in Bucharest!
DePaul rules!
What's it going to take to get a Gentoo icon?!? We're not even asking for a gentoo.slashdot.org.
/. will call the election about a week after the polls are closed.
Just a freakin' pic.
ugghh.
Applying the rate of reposts/double posts to this new section, I predict
"Nokia is not a country, it's the capital of Finland!" -Moderated "Informative". Yeesh.
This is nice, but why don't you, the /. editors, answer emails? You lost my subscription because of a total lack of response to any email I sent. It isn't a normal company that can just walk away from 20+ USD in almost pure profit per month.
lemme check that profile thingy....
let's see... Anime-check Politics-check!

Or maybe which is the best country in the world?
Personally, I think it's America.
OFFTOPIC? up yours, MOD...
/., Fark, blogblog, etc. except that the large majority of Americans are ignorant jackasses that know little of whatever candidate they support.
/please hurry and mod this one offtopic, too! Beat the rush! (heheh - get it? Rush? Rush Limbaugh? too funny...!
How is my desire to ignore the coming FLAME WARS considered offtopic?
I bet you'll find quite a few following my lead. I have yet to learn a damn thing from any of the flameouts on
I play a game when I fly for business each week. Depending on what book the person next to me is reading, I morph into a supportive character.
"Dude, Where's My Country"? 'Bush Sucks!' will get you in good graces.
"Deliver Us from Evil"? 'Liberal media scum!' does the trick.
The only thing that remains true through it all, is that Michael Moore is still a very fat bastard.
