PERSON OF THE YEAR….In a shocking surprise, Time has named Barack Obama their person of the year. Yawn. I would have voted for one of those cheesy group picks, in this case “America’s mortgage bankers and Wall Street rocket scientists.” I mean, if touching off the 21st century version of the Great Depression doesn’t make you person of the year, what the hell does it take?
Runners up were Henry Paulson, Nicolas Sarkozy, Zhang Yimou, and, in a tremendous diss to poor old John McCain, Sarah Palin. Feh. Tina Fey would have been a more deserving choice.
