Re: "why now?"

Because THIS is the year in which the Corporate powered "Project for a New American Century" plan of global domination, was finally exposed as a complete fraud, a crippling failure, and an unmittigated disaster, for the entire world to see.

Who can take credit for exposing the depth of the deception? Time? CBS? FOX?

Look in the mirror, my friends, and congratulations!

They blew it. Their "Person of the Year" award should go to every citizen of this country who cast a vote last month.

I could have bought the concept of "You" if it were in the context of the American voter who, as a 'collective' (so to speak), voted in a revolution of sorts. The impact of the 2006 election has the possibility of instituting great change.

I agree with other posters who wonder why now with the digital age--it's not anything new. The vote was indicative of a tidal wave of the desire for change.

One thing Time did succeed at once again was getting people talking about their choice. It is always an interesting topic of debate.

"If chosen I do not chose to run."
Digital experiences were foisted on a populace, most of whom had no interest in it's creation, by those that believed the world should talk.

we're at war on several fronts in this age of information. Is nobody talking, or is nobody listening?

Dude, I'm so cool. I'm person of the year. Yet, strangely enough, my year sucked. I can only imagin how the year went for so many others who weren't the person of the year.

What stupid pandering. Why don't they just name everyone who reads their stupid, pointless magazine as person of the year.

...that's getting real tired. Try being more creative.

They should have used the picture of Al Gore. After all, wasn't he the one who CREATED the internet??

The annual honor for 2006 went to each and every one of us, except Bush and Chain-y gang
