3. I'm guessing some angry, some mocking the cover portrait, and
some fawning over Our Glorious Leader. I hope most of the emails fall into the first two categories.

TIME isn't off the hook yet! For those of us who haven't written them, we just need to give them some time to read their email before we bombard them again!

8. I didn't think it was necessarily an honor
Edited on Mon Dec-20-04 01:53 PM by ThorsHammer
I thought it was given to the person who had the biggest impact in the last year. If I remember correctly, Osama was considered in 2001, and Hitler in the 40's.

10. It isn't necessarily an honour, but the idiots who support the
King Idiot will do what they can to make it be seen that way.....

12. True, Stalin, Hitler, Mao etc have all made Time covers...but read Time's
article on bush that goes with the cover. They didn't put him on there for his ok'ing TORTURE or his GULAG in Gitmo, or his WAR OF AGGRESSION in Iraq or his success in making the entire world hate our guts or for his total INCOMPETENCE.

9. How can this be?? He makes our Nat Debt grow by 15%, our
deficit is now 800 Billion and growing, our Homeless/jobless rate still rising, our Military stretched thin, Coffins coming to every State from Iraq and Afghanistan, evironmentals laws being repealed and over run, etc etc

The policies this creature imposes on our Nation are horrible and detrimental.... and yet.... the Mind theft goes on....

Pathetic and profoundly sad.

We could do sooooo much better.

17. The reason why he should not have been POTY
Not because he did a lot of bad things.

Because he didn't do anything. He's the head of a movement based on hatred and lies, but that movement is monolithic. Without him it would have been somebody else. He's a puppet.

21. I sent mine earlier today
and it got through. Told them they'll sell the most copies if they stick them beside the Charmin or next to the cat litter, so people will be able to find appropriate uses for them.
