Time magazine was obviously facing a tough choice for "man of the year"
Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad? Yikes. They could put Hitler on their cover in the 1930s, but ummm, well ... we need to sell magazines.
They could give it to Rummie, whom they deferred to a couple years ago in lieu of "The American Soldier"
How about Mel Gibson? No, that would be the South End of a Northbound Mule of the Year award.
hmmm...
I have GOT IT!!!
NOBODY!!!!
Think about it:
Nobody stood up to Bush amid the politics of fear, post 9/11.
Nobody was THERE to say NO when Bush set up a system whereby hundreds have been detained without constitutional rights.
I am beginning to like Nobody.
Nobody cares.
Nobody has all the answers.
In fact, (of course) Nobody is PERFECT!
I think the good folks at Time made a HUGE mistake.
Nobody has been there in Washington to stand up for the common people.
Nobody understands the economy.
Solve world hunger? Nobody said it will be easy!
Well, It IS true that I am Nobody's fool, but I do think he would be a great candidate in 2008!
But NO, Time pronounces EVERYBODY as man of the year?
WTF is this?
Everybody tells me California is going to slide into the ocean, and there is life on Mars and that Jeb Bush did 9/11.
Everybody is full of shit.
Nobody, however, can get us out of this mess in Iraq.
Am I making myself clear?
NOBODY FOR PRESIDENT!!
