If this is true, the editors of Time are just nuts.

Do you hate America?
Do you have some way of making America look bad?
Are you interested in the downfall of America?

Then you too can be Time’s person of the year!

No surprise here. We should expect nothing better from Time. They are American hating leftist commies.

Assuming Time is even around in 20 years (a very iffy proposition), this is an example of someone people will look back at and say...”who was that guy again?” Assange will be historical blip.

We went through this same crap with Bin Laden. Every year Time names some miscreant “Person of the Year” then explains that the title isn’t a valedictory award, but a designation for the person who had the biggest effect on the world for good or bad. Instead of simply changing the name to “Newsmaker of the Year” or “Catalyst of the Year” they court this boring controversy like clockwork every 12 months in a pathetic attempt to generate interest in their dying mag. Ignore please.

I would venture to guess that 90 percent of Americans have never heard of Assange.

The best way to ‘stop’ them is not to buy or read their garbage. They are barely hanging on to solvency now. They would love nothing more than to create enough controversy to dupe morons into buying their stupid rag....lol.

There is a certain percentage of the population in this country that believe the US Government should not be allowed to have any SECRETS. Their answer is to "steal" the data and then have the NYSLimes print the classified data under the 1st Amendment. What is wrong with the culture in America today? Start with the education system - the Commies infiltrated it decades ago and are now reaping their rewards - the destruction of the USA.

Defense Department Intelligence and Security Doctrine, Directives and Instructions

Ass(ange) is NOT the owner of the stolen classified data and so at a minimum he should be civilally prosecuted the same way he would post copywrited songs and movies on the internet. BUT really a firing squad is too good for Ass(ange). Why isn't there a law against printing of classified data? I could not figure that out when the lefties and their house organ the NYSlimes were printing NSA SECRETS a couple of years ago. I thought the Chicago Tribune was prosecuted or shut down during WWII? Aren't we in a WOT today?
