Time Person of the Year: American soldier

[RGBVideo]

Time has been only covering issues from anglo-american viewpoint during the last decade or so. The whole 'person of the year' -thing, OTOH has never been nothing but a joke. They just pick up the person which has (have?) been most trendy in the past years media coverage.

Yeah, let's make the henchmen person(s) of the year :

I would think I'd rate at least "Minion".

[Lonestar]

Besides, I'd thought they would at least be "Oppressors".

Since when did Henry Luce's magazine ever cover the news other than from an American perspective?

It shudda been Bush. I don't like was he's been doing but his policies were paramount in changing the world during this last year. How could it be anyone but him?

Cause Time is run by leftist commies . Didn't you know that ZKribbler?

[Zkribbler]

I dunno. I wouldn't think that left-wing commies would vote for American G.I.'s.

Of course they would... you see how they are getting killed because of evil right wing government policies?
