    No argument from me, but thats all hindsight for us. I dont think, in 1939, Time Magazine knew the true horrors Hitler had planned.

    Stalin made the list twice, 1939 and 1942.

    Churchill also made the list twice, 1940 and 1949.

    Harry Truman makes the list 2 times as well, 1945 and 48.

    Jimmay Carter made the list in 1977, and he lead us too...

    Ronald Reagan making the list twice, 1980 and shares it with Yuri Andropov in 83.

    Im getting lazy here but WTS is with the Shrubs getting not 1, not 2, but 3 nods for Times Man of the Year? 1990, 2000, and 2004. Seriously, the Shrubco Clan gets 3 nods?

    The 1 Kennedy to get the nod, I will salute proudly, he deserved it. ETA: When I visited JFK's memorial with a friend of mine in 1999 just before the New Year, we held the POA in respect for the man and the office he held.

    That was a powerfull moment for me, same as standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial where MLK JR gave his speech.

    If anyone can visit either sight and feel nothing, I would feel pity for them.

    I disagree. Hitler annexed Austria in 1938. That's pretty influential to me!

    Not nearly as influential as the attrocities from the years following.

    I hope your perspective does not equate the Pope, American Soldiers, and a Nobel Peace Prize honorary with monsters like Hitler and Stalin. I strongly disagree with Al Gore winning the Nobel Peace Prize, my perspective wont allow me too, but I would not put him on the same level as Hitler or Stalin.

    I puzzled as why you find your comparison silly, it seems fairly spot on.

    LOL, I am glad that TIME doesn't print in soy ink.

    Otherwise I'd look like one of those monkeys with the colored arse you see at the zoo or on Animal Planet.

    Seriously, what has BO done to influence the world?
