GENERAL DAVID PETRAEUS - MY PERSON OF THE YEAR

Let's have an award for someone who has actually made the world a better place. Since January of this year Gen. Petraeus has led the greatest tango whacking mission in history. This has made it possible for Iraqis to take back their lives and start working on a civil society. The incredible change in the security situation was made possible by his strategy of Counter-Insurgency, implemented by our peerless military, and finally the long-awaited Awakening that started in Anbar...

I give you the Person of the Year for those of us who prefer action against evil to bloviation against common sense.

HOO-AH GENERAL PETRAEUS !

But NOOOOOOO

TIME MAG NAMES A X-KGB THUG PERSON OF THE YEAR

You have to abso-fu**in-lutely be kidding me, Putin Person of the Year.

No one is born with a stare like Vladimir Putin's. The Russian President's pale blue eyes are so cool, so devoid of emotion that the stare must have begun as an affect, the gesture of someone who understood that power might be achieved by the suppression of ordinary needs, like blinking.



You are a complete Muppet Mr. Stengel. There is another, more accurate description of Putin's eyes, he is a cold-blooded, steely-eyed killer. By nature or nurture isn't really important any more. Putin has presided over the looting of every item of value or industry in Russia, he kills his political opponents and journalists as well you fool. He is a criminal totalitarian who would leave Joe Stalin gasping in admiration at his audacity. He just crowned his successor who promptly named him Prime Minister, really there's a shocker.

It's long been known that the media has a serious bias, but to show this level of cluelessness is amazing. The idea that Putin has been a net good for Russia is comical unless you believe a country runs best when criminal enterprises run all major industries in a patronage pyramid leadng right back to Vlad the Impaler, the government controls the only media outlets they haven't shut down, and the news comes straight from the Kremlin press office. Oh did I mention they shoot journalists.

I am done, this is too stupid to waste any more time on, what clowns our elite drive by media are.

The ONLY GOOD thing, it was NOT Al Gore !
