Time has made another scary Fascist Nationalist their "Person of the Year".
You know, the guy who tried to call economic liebensraum on the North Pole. Oh, yeah, and our friend's dealings with Iran. Oh, and the Chenchens...don't forget the gangsterism of Russia's New Economy, the one Reagan promised would put cars in every garage. The Morning in Russia looks like it might shape up to be the Midnight in Europe and Asia...
But don't worry: Georgie looked into his soul with his magical christ-y powers.
God Help Us, Everyone!
In fairness to Time, the person of the year is just based on importance, not at all on morality. It's a weasely way to avoid any sort of judgement.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, you're dead on.
I suppose I didn't really articulate that; I took it as a given the Time is not necessarily a fascist front.
ReplyDeleteAt any rate, welcome to the Circle. Hope you'll stick around.
