Vladimir Putin

:bloated: fck that commie bstard!

lol time named the guy who just dissolved his country’s parliament right before elections their man of the year? :bloated:

Well…it could have been the inventor of the internet…

Wow the editors at Time are morons. Or maybe they just don’t want to be killed like the 20+ people in Russia who have met mysterious ends after criticizing Putin.

Time Man of the Year is someone who had the most impact on the world in the 2007 year. Good or bad.

Hell, Hitler was man of the year by time in '38.

it was either him or al gore lol

That is Time’s wet dream.

After Hitler was Time’s MOTY in 1938, I really never cared for the award.

about half the people on that list are pieces of shit. If I ever won that award i would refuse it. What a joke.

never noticed before, stalin won it twice…

I think its well deserved.

He turned that country around, in a very short amount of time

I completely agree. Aside from the fact that we do not live there or have to deal with life on a day by day basis. He has turned Russia around from complete disaster. It takes a tough person to be a leader of a nation. Not just anyone has it in them to do it. In every government there are ups and downs and good and bad actions but as far as he is concerned he is doing well for his country.

Do i agree with his actions, no, not always. Do I agree with our countries actions, no, not always.

6 of one, half dozen of the other.

I sometimes wish our goverment would kill journalists

Stop talking. That’s a rediculous thing to say.

Amen.

I think todays Journalisim and Creative writing are one in the same.
Fucking storytellers

+1

The only problem is that they’re one in the same. Nightly news = political propaganda.
