Is the slashdot moderation system grinding to a halt? Well this copy&paste says it all:

How does this get modded up? The sentence doesn't even make sense! Do people just get mod-happy when they see that maybe Fox is being made fun of? Even if it's in a sentence that a 4-year old could write better?

Jesus Christ people.

I agree with you. I'm a Dutchman and all week the Dutch media covered the American elections. It isn't even our president for crying out loud! By the way, there the Dutch media always paints the Amercans as dumb sheep following a completely biased news channels. Which just cannot be true. To be short, I got fed up with it all. I spoke my mind and accepted this would get a mod "-1; Flamebait".

English isn't my native tounge, so sue me... :-|
