How did Time magazine announce Ben Bernanke as their Person of the Year?

[Deuce]

The economy is in shambles.

i just saw this on yahoo

what a bunch of monkey shit. i wipe my ass with time magazine. just goes to show you that all these awards are bought or controlled by the powers that be.

first obama wins a peace prize for doing nothing but making promises and then this thief bernanke wins person of the year when the economy is getting raped by corrupt bankers and their bullshit stimulus

haha what a joke

[jgray]

That is an awful decision.

[Cougar Bait]

Did you see the others on the list that almost made the cut? Nancy Pelosi? Glenn Beck? What the...? Liberal magazines that think people actually give a shit about this garbage are going out of business for a reason.

Check out Michael Savage. Real. Uncensored. Not a corporate manifestation to sell pharmaceuticals. He was banned in Britain for speaking his mind. He's an independent talk-show host with 2 masters degrees and a PhD in epidemiology. He's also been on the air since 1994. My point here is, don't wait for TIME magazine to tell you who the person of the year is. And you're right on in your analysis of Bernanke as a terrible choice. The Fed needs to be audited but the people who control the people you think are in control won't allow it.

This is bullshit. The economy is bad. I don't get it.

[jgray]

Given the state of the economy, this choice is laughably bad. But given his competition, Pelosi, Beck, etc., he might have been the "best" candidate.

[koby25]

Very stupid if you ask me.

[beach nut]

Terrible choice.

[blueghost]

i heard all 100 subscibers voted for him..didnt know anybody still reads time

[Shortstop]

Michael Savage should have won.
