Time Magazines person of the year is you...

but it was a tough choice between the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and you...

And Stengel said if the magazine had decided to go with an individual, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was the likely choice. "It just felt to me a little off selecting him," Stengel said.

Hmmm, it just felt a little off in wanting to select the guy who wants to deny the Holocaust happened, wipe Israel off the face of the Earth, and see an apocalypse according to his own beliefs?

Well, I guess it could work out for Time. If Ahmadinejad "proves" to the world the Holocaust never happened, then Time can finally print its buried Hitler cover and the New York Times can point back to their editorial enthusiasm for Hitler and say they were right after all.

You.

That is so asinine. It gives the term "Person of the Year" absolutely no meaning anymore. All because they couldn't figure out who to put on their cover.

I used to look forward to Time's year-end issue, even try to guess who would be chosen. The "Person of the Year" is supposed to relfect the person who has had the most impact on the world, postively or negatively. Frankly, as much as I'd hate to admit it,I'd rather have the Iranian President on there than Me.
