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.
media created cult of personality knows no bounds.
Perhaps Obama will be the nail in the coffin of the belief that “newer is better”.
Major Barf Alert!
Does anyone still read Time?
gag me with a spoon!
So he’s tied with Hitler?
Who cares!!Does anyone even read Time any more?The Communist have taken over our beautiful country..
I wish I had remembered to bring the barf bag from the airplane I was on the other day.
At least it isn’t Sandra Fluke.
“At least it isn’t Sandra Fluke.”
So it wasn’t OWS? Damn, that’s 5 bucks I will never get back.

...you don't have to be virtuous only important.
Lucifer was very important as well when God cast Him down...according to Dante he embraced Obama’s motto:
“I would rather rule in Hell than serve in Heaven.”
I remember Time Magazine. Is it still being published? The last issue I saw was at my dentist’s office and it was a couple of years old at the time.
Yeah, and probably with the same goals../sarc
Just like the Nobel Peace Prize, awarded for no reason.
Has anyone proven he’s even a PERSON? How can he be Person of the Year without documentation?
/no sarc, series! I’m stunned!
Is TIME still relevent?
Fixed.
Whenever the Communists take over a country, they start calling it “The New” this or that - the New Russia, the New China, etc. now we’re The New America. Oh goody.
