2. LOL, I agree, but I did..
write to them and told them that the man responsible for thousands of Iraqi and American deaths, should not be "man of the year".

I just think people should not be given the notoriety for crimes. I guess I disagree with Time's idea altogether.

3. 78N - 22Y. Most of MSRNC's Polls Go Against Shrub
Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 09:25 AM by UTUSN
Seems like they, and Tweety, should realize more of their viewers are somewhere to the Left. They might have toned it down a ways since the days when they featured WIENER-Savage, dumped DONAHUE, and hired SCARBOROUGH, to hiring OLBERMANN. Who's replacing NORVILLE.

4. Man of the year could refer to
person that did the most to destroy the US. Wasn't Hitler man of the year once?

9. yes,
Hitler was and so was Stalin, but I just disagree with their idea completely.

Why put a criminal on the front of a magazine?

10. I voted and let them know how I feel.
Still at 79% against the decision. If the award is for the shallowest mind and biggest psychopathic killer of the year, Time Magazine hit the bull's eye. I wish I had a subscription to cancel.

12. I've been listening to MSNBC for the past
3 hours.

They waited until the vote wasn't at 80/79 "no", before they announed the percentage.

I'm boggled.

C'mon guys, go vote and get that vote back where it should be.

:)

13. Time Magazine Caved
I think Time Magazine finally caved in to the Republicans. Since 9/11 the Republicans have been critizing Time for their pick of person of the year in that the magazine did pick Bush. Each year no matter who the magazine picked Republicans would say that person was picke because the magazine did not want to pick Bush. I think this year they did not want to be critized.

18. I couldnt vote, but gave them this:
"How many thousands dead?
For what?
Oil profits, that's what.
Yeah right, the moron for "man of the year"
Oh, and why haven't you covered the increasing energy costs, and what it means to middle\low income people?
Energy prices up 30%, while the oil companys record record profits?
Independent press, huh?
I have a clue, you kiss the juntas ass, that's why.
Up yours, msrnc, you fascist enablers."

I wonder if they will call\write back.
Hee-Hee

19. And by the way,,,,,,,,,
if the US is so stupid and bamboozled, why do all the results of previous polls show the correct answers, in overwhelming numbers? Check them out.

A great FRAUD is being perpetrated on the American public. It encompasses the media and the voting booth. We are being screwed. And I think large portions of our own party are involved in it.

Nothing to see here, let's all move to the right...that's the way.
