Meet the Editor’s at Time Magazine
I am on record as saying that Time Magazine has never, ever had an easier choice than they did in 2007 when it comes to selecting the Person of the Year. Gen. David Petraeus is the clear choice.
They didn’t just screw it up, they screwed it up massively.
The guy I thought they’d pick, Al Gore, was the runner-up.
Certainly, given all that he has accomplished, Gen. Petraeus must have finished third, behind Gore? Nope, that would be fiction writer J.K. Rowling. No, really, JK Rowling. Are we talking about Time Magazine here or US Magazine?
Time went ahead and selected Vladimir Putin as their Person of the Year.
Gen. Petraeus came in fifth. Incredible.

I wholeheartedly agree. General Patraeus should be the Man of the Year, hands down, as he took us from the brink of defeat to precipice of victory, despite all the naysayers. While the Shiite-led Iraqi government might let us down in the end with its shortsightedness, Patraeus is the main reason that victory is now a strong possibility.
It’s just shameful the way that most media elites want us to fail in Iraq.
