Time Should Have Honored an Unheralded Person of Year

I don't remember his name right off, but I met the Sgt on the right in an air terminal in Iraq. When offered tix to the Superbowl he said he preferred to be with his family.

They certainly chose the right guy to represent the soldiers.

Is it too late for Bush?

It would be a re-run.

Go ahead and honor them. Time made their pick, you make your pick.

I do, and I have . . . and I also pick WORLD over feckless Time any old day of the week.

...and I also pick WORLD over feckless Time any old day of the week.

Me too.

Start your own magazine and you can select who you like. Time has always aimed for people who have an international impact -- including the American soldier. I'm surprised Marvin didn't call for a boycott of the magazine. That's the usual MO of the nutty wing of the conservative party.

As a matter of fact, Marvin was present at the creation of one; it's WORLD, a great alternative to effete Time, which is destined to spend the rest of its days frozen in the amber of '60's liberalism.

Boycotts? We don't need no stinkin' boycotts to give undue attention to Time and the rest of the MSM, all of whom are treading the path to a richly merited marginalization.

Time is a joke. They send me their mags free, unordered, and unwanted for my waiting rooms. I trash them as I do not want my customers reading the trash and lies they spew.

Good on ya! I suggest edifying your customers with the weekly news magazine to which Olasky's a regular contributor, WORLD.

This guy has got to be kidding.

Time will honor anything Southern Baptist or conservative Christian exactly when Hell freezes over.

What a cool article. Thanks for posting that. It made me feel good all over.

In the meantime, Time can continue to fudge its circulation numbers.

Time won't show the average American citizen doing what they do best and that is helping their neighbors. Look at how much average Americans gave between the Tsunami and the hurricanes.


Here's a good story about regular folks being good citizens.

I wonder what Harold Angel would think.

[ViLaLuz]

"It would have been good to honor one of the 9,000 Southern Baptists ..."

The Christophobes would never give that "honor" to a Christian.

Who is Harold Angel?

(Hark the .......sing?)

Hey, someone actually guessed what one of my jokes was about:). Thanks. Of course, you know, that means that you have lowered yourself to my level you know:)
