[buff2]

Just saw it on CNN. Woman on there saying he's a good candidate for it since he is handleing a "war"....had to go through the "Katrina" disaster...blah,blah,blah....Khrist. :puke: :puke: :puke:

[bahrbearian]

1. I think he beat out Satan this time.

[hippiechick]

2. fuckup of the year is more like it ...

... I'm thinkin' they'll name all the citizens of NOLA together as 'person of the year' -- or how 'bout that little boy who led that group of lost toddlers during the Katrina flood ?

Certainly not the DimSon !!

[walldude]

3. Apparently that voting thing didn't mean shit

I think * got about 3% of the votes....

[Beelzebud]

4. Wasn't Hitler the man of the year once?

[unblock]

8. 1938, i think, and stalin 1939. or i might have those reversed.

[in_cog_ni_to]

5. He IS going to be OR SHE thinks he's a good candidate?

This country is so damn screwed up.

[buff2]

19. The way she was pumping him up I wouldn't be surprised

if he did get it. God, this is a nightmare that never ends. The biggest MORON on this planet and he gets treated like he is all that and a bag of chips. :grr:

[tjwash]

6. He will look right at home next to Adolph Hitler...

...who was another Time "honoree"

[Johonny]

7. Can a chimp win this

or does it have to be a person

[AllegroRondo]

9. They named a computer in the mid 80's

so why not a chimp?

[unblock]

10. my vote is for KATRINA for "disaster of the year"

they don't always pick humans, e.g., one year they picked the computer.

katrina was a watershed (terrible pun, and in poor taste, sorry on both counts) event on many levels, including a political and media coverage turning point for shrub for the worse.

[saltpoint]

11. TIME might consider Bob Herbert, Frank Rich and

Seymour Hersh.

While most of the rest of the media are caving in all over the place, these three shone like the sun this year on calling the Bush administration to accountability.

[Marr]

12. Bush was a good candidate for Person of the Year in 2003.

After all, the award is based on who has most influenced the world. Bush definitely did alot of that in 2003, but since he got his way on the invasion, his only notable "influence" has been that of incompetence.

Yes, he had a huge impact on the Katrina disaster, but only because he did *nothing*. That's hardly noteworthy.

[madinmaryland]

13. Uhh, I think he going to give himself a Medal of Honor

for a doing a heckuva a job.

Don't know about "person of the year". I'm sure he could force time to give it to him.

[Marnieworld]

14. He had to go through the Katrina disaster?!!!

Was he on in an attic or on a roof hoping to be rescued before he died of thirst? Was he stuck in the fetid darkness of the superdome? I am so sick of these so-called journalists that act as if something bad has happened to him because we all got to see what an immoral incompetent administration this is and some of us actually *gasp* criticized him. Assholes.

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. His over-inflated ego is already too much to bear. Look out now!

There'll be no living with the little worm after this. :puke:

[...of J.Temperance]

16. The Bush bastard has been Time Person of The Year EVERY year

Since 2001...the MIND boggles...I WONDER how much money Bush Inc. PAYS Time magazine to have Junior as their Person of The Year EVERY year?

[underpants]

17. Does someone have to pin him to take the belt?

Wasn't he just their PoY last year....you know for "winning the election"as is the usual.

He now is getting awards for not doing anything during a natural disaster??? Oh well I guess that is a step up from getting credit for 9/11.

[Walt Starr]

18. Let me guess, it was Kyra who said this, right? n/t

[buff2]

20. No it was some dimwit from time,I think.

I just tuned in right in the middle of her talking. It was disgusting beyond words. :puke:

[MissMarple]

21. Most incompetent person of the year...sure.

That works for me.

[VolcanoJen]

22. "Person" of the Year will be Mother Nature

If it's not, then Time continues to be irrelevant, and continues to suck on the teat of the Whiny-Ass Titty Babies in the White House. :-)

[VADem11]

23. It's not an honor

Many people think being named person of the year is an honor even though people like Hitler have been people of the year. The controversy when they named Ayatollah Khomeini person of the year scared them away from naming Osama in 2001 even though he was the biggest news maker. That's the qualification to be named person of the year.
