So the socialists at Time chose the press-squashing, opponent-jailing, freedom-restricting Vlad the Putin. Pathetic choice, I agree.
I would like to have this thread be a place where we can have a conversation about who OUGHT to be the "Person of the Year".
No real rules, since a conversation can go several places.
I would suggest, however, that we pick someone who is not an "icon", or who could credibly be the POY every single year.
For instance, Rush Limbaugh--I love the guy, and he COULD be POY every year...but he is pretty much extraordinary EVERY year. I am thinking we ought to suggest someone who has, this year especially, been a hero to advancing the cause of freedom.
But hey, that is just a suggestion. Let's have some fun.
The men and woman of the United States Armed Forces...
May God bless everyone who has fought for our freedom.
May God please comfort the families of those who fought and did not return.
I know technically not an individual person, but they qualify in my book.
Well, he can win again. :>)
LOL... almost as wussified as crying, "waaah...people voting for you might mean that I lose!"
