George W. Bush named 'Man Of The Year' by Time magazine
Oh, for f#cks sake!
Quote:
I guess it's too risky for a high-profile magazine like Time to expose Bush for the immoral, money-grabbing, war-hungry, stupid son of a whore that he is! What the fuck is wrong with America? They should've given this "honour" to Michael Moore -at least he's trying to do what's best for the United States. What's best for the U.S. has never been something that concerns the Bush family! |

How that stupid f*ckwit Bush can be named man of the year is beyond me. There must be so many others who have done work for charity or something more deserving of this. |

But it makes sense, Man of The Year doesn't really mean "The Best Man of the Year" ... but "The Man who made most of an Impact This Year"... and i'd dare say, he takes the cake! ... just to say, can't any of you think levelheadedly about this whole Bush thing, i mean, i know so many of you don't like him at all, i don't either, but whenever he comes up you just go "Americans are so stupid" blah blah blah Bush is an idiot blah blah blah. I mean, just look at what it says about the award and you'd understand where it comes from, he certainly had EVERYONE talking this year, it makes perfect sense... so just live with it, we have to |

He's a documentary maker! what more? He tells people what to think by editing... he's not exactly changing the world with real action just skewing facts to gain their support! That's why he wouldn't deserve it at all. I'd rather it go to someone a bit more honest (but that doesn't seem to exist in the world anymore)

Moore presents facts. There's no "skewing" involved!

yes there are! i've seen his film and while i don't claim to know everything about what's going on in my own country, but there are some serious things wrong with what he presents in "F911" and "Bowling for Columbine" ... even my very liberal brother found that the way he shows these things are VERY "skewed"

hahaha, it's been so long i can't think of any, but i remember being incredibly unsure about 1/2 of both movies, it's just about reading between the lines in these instances and not believing everything your told, especially from the highly conservative and highly liberal... If i ever feel like watching the movie again, i'll give you some examples though (i'll pm you or something)

Of course Moor's documentaries are very biased and manipulative, and not 100% truth .... but that's their goal, to get provoke emotions, to get you thinking ... etc
I dont agree with you, thegurgi, when you say he doesnt deserve it at all, because he is documentarist .... his documentaries made big impacts, and i dont know of a single person that lives in USA and havent seen them. As for why Bush won is obvious, as said above, its not who is the BEST, but : "the person or persons who most affected the news and our lives, for good or for ill, and embodied what was important about the year, for better or for worse". Should you have any doubts thats the W this year? Of course, you know that if Bush hadnt won the election, it would probably be another choice, but thats a different story ... |

The more i think about it the more i realise what a stupid award this actually is.
I bet GW is proud he got this award. For example did any magazines bother to give an award to Christopher Reeve or his family?(they may have i genuinely don't know) On the Michael Moore point..I like what he's trying to do but for me he goes for cheap point scoring rather than trying to actually do anything. (slightly off topic here but..I always found our own Mark Thomas always got better results than Moore ever would.(in Europe anyway.) John Pilger and George Monbiot have also exposed corruption better than Moore as well. If you want to read a good book go for Captive State by Monbiot.It certainly opens your eyes to what is going on in Britain and the 1st chapter with the Skye Bridge protests and Robbie the Pict is infuriating and hilarious. |

freddie | TatySite.net t.E.A.m. [ multyman@hotmail.com ] Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. |

I think I kind of agree with the award-thingie.. He wasn't the BEST man, but he made such a big impact, I mean, there were so many discussions about him... It's like, everybody thinks SOMETHING of George W. Bush.

Not surprised at all...I actually was telling a friend of mine just 2 weeks ago that Bush is gonna turn into a hero and after he steps down he's gonna be regarded as a peace maker.
Jee, man, I've come into the position of cracking a lot more "unpredictable" things than that, how can this one be considered a big deal...this is elementary stuff sister, mind manipulation of the third degree. He was re-elected after all, WASN'T HE? but now we see how the "hero" gonna fix the situation in Iraq coz its pretty screwed up at the moment what a D-O-R-K PS. Queenbee, wake up! ( No I haven't seen Moore's stuff and I'm not gonna see it, I'd rather not watch a rigged thing about the man when I got my own opinion about the man. Don't matter what Moore says, he's just another liberal pawn ) |
