President Barack Obama has been named "Time Magazine" Person of the Year.
"Time" says the U.S. is in the middle of big changes and President Obama is the symbol of what they call "a new America."
"The Protester" was Person of the Year in 2011.
President Obama was also on the cover of this anticipated issue of "Time" back in 2008, the year he was first elected to the White House.

2006 was particularly lame.

This will thrill the American people, 58 percent of whom now say they "support" Obama. Of course, it may not sell many Time magazine copies.

It should have been Candy Crowley, for saving Obama’s bacon in the debate that she moderated.

Amazing how many are mass murderers.
Hitler, Stalin (TWICE!), Krushchev, King Faisal, Ayatullah Khomeini, American Women, Jimmy Carter, Anwar Sadat, and Bill Clinton, not to mention Obama.
That’s with my limited history knowledge. Wow.

We canceled our subscription about 45 years ago. It’samusing to see them waste money and trees on those utterly futile subscription offers.

“Time” says the U.S. is in the middle of big changes and President Obama is the symbol of what they call “a new America.”
As a result, his picture should not be on the cover of Time, but on the post office wall.

Its relevant when i run out of toilet paper and don’t want to shuffle to the closet for a new roll.

Of course he is their "Person of The Year!" Barack Obama loves the children of our country. He recently demonstrated his love and concern by crying out of the wrong side of one eye. He is just like other leaders admired by TIME readers.
He protects the people with "special interests".
He is already a proven winner.
He won re-election just like another great world leader.
We should be honored to have his visage grace the cover of such a fine and respected magazine. /SARCASM

This is The Man of the Year. Symbolizing, representing everything wrong about our country in 2012.
