Time magazine Man of the Year Award goes to....

1. In fact they named him "Person of the Year." Notice they didn't say "Man."

3. Hitler had the same honor in 1938, and Stalin in 1939

4. Person of the Year.
While Bush probably THINKS he is receiving some sort of award by being named Person of the Year, the title is not intended to be an honor. It is given to the person who has been in the news, or influenced the news, the most over the past year. That is why it has been given to many other dishonorable people over the years.
