My man of the year is the Representative who treats citizens as equals and solicits their advice. **

Your man of the year must have artistic talent? That is how we know they treat everyone as equals?

Not everyone Brad. I’ll save you a read of the whole piece of toilet paper, by giving you the last two paragraphs:
My man of the year is Everyman who lives in Anybody town. He’s not into designer duds, facials, $200.00 haircuts, private clubs, hair implants, gilded boardrooms, yacht races, golf tournaments, or casino haunts. He doesn’t smoke expensive imported cigars, wear lizard cowboy boots, ride on private or corporate jets, or have his shirts custom made. He doesn’t speak in legalese, Orwellian, double-speak-or corporate jargon. He’s not coddled and protected with armored limousines, concrete barriers, and legions of guards, fences, helicopters, and metal detectors. He was never bailed out or protected by money or connections; from the consequences of his actions. He was never pampered, or supplied with all his monetary and materialistic needs (and desires).

My man of the year is Everyman who lives in Anybody town. He doesn’t lie, cheat, defraud, or pollute his neighbor (or the world) for profit. He doesn’t send men off to war with no equipment (or junk). He doesn’t plunder forests, dump nuclear waste in oceans, use depleted uranium in weapons (poisoning soldiers and civilians), nor send the young to die for conquest and oil. He doesn’t cut veterans benefits, or eat at banquet meals, while those who fight eat canned slop and their families exist on food stamps. He doesn’t tell people that God has ordered him to shred the limbs from children-destroy a whole land with horrifying weapons-torture people-nor wall people in from their land and the light! He doesn’t lie and tell people that jobs are plentiful or insanely tell them to train for another career at age 50; with scarred calloused hands from the mines and the mills! He doesn’t see the elderly choosing between food-fuel and medicine.

More liberal blather… I’m not saying I approve of dumping nuclear waste in the ocean, using depleted uranium, etc. I just think saying “He was never pampered, or supplied with all his monetary and materialistic needs.” is an obvious swipe at the President. I will bet you money, the author didn’t mean John Kerry or Teddy Kennedy.

Peace,

Robert.

Pray for our political leaders.

Sure is liberal blather - I have another 2 words for it - “hate speech” - or does that only apply when a liberal declares it hate or when you quote from the Bible?
 
Guys,

People need to realize we use depleted uranium as shielding for our a number of our vehicles. Remember last week’s ‘scandal’ on arming? Nothing else is as resistant to rocket propelled grenades.

Thanks Gilliam, I didn’t know that. My primary point was that as noble as someone like this is:
He coaches, hangs the Christmas lights, is a selectman (council person), volunteers at the museum, rescues a kitten, is first at a disaster, and generous with praise or a needed hug.

I don’t understand why we shouldn’t make someone Man-of-the-Year, just because they fit some of these descriptions:
He’s not into designer duds, facials, $200.00 haircuts, private clubs, hair implants, gilded boardrooms, yacht races, golf tournaments, or casino haunts. He doesn’t smoke expensive imported cigars, wear lizard cowboy boots, ride on private or corporate jets, or have his shirts custom made.

He might also employ thousands of people and be a great philantropist!

Or how about this guy?:
He was never…supplied with all his monetary and materialistic needs… eat at banquet meals, while those who fight eat canned slop and their families exist on food stamps.

Doesn’t your local Archbishop and JPII fit this description? I’m pretty sure the sacrifices they have made on our behalf are not lessened by these facts.

Peace,

Robert.
 
Robert,

Person of the year? That is Time Magazine’s designation. Lots of people are doing good work in the world, and lots of people are making news. Time selects one every year for the primary purpose: to sell magazines. You know that don’t you? It is a publicity stunt, always was and always will be.

The reward for holiness is heaven. Not having Time Magazine name you “Person of the Year”.

my 2-cents.

(and you need to know I live in Phoenix. The last Bishop we had left in scandle, we are currently having another scandle, so the jury is out, literally, on our local Bishop…)

(of course, liberals will say, “so what? Hitler won it in 1938 and Stalin won it twice!”)

Nevertheless, Bush’s 2nd “man of the year” cover puts him in elite class among past world leaders: Churchill, Truman and few others.

Yeah what we have here is a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Under the same article. Government to impose mentle heatlh screening for students.

Okay…I didn’t make any statements about the importance or validity of Time magazine. I personally don’t like the magazine. I was commenting on the article in someone else’s post.

Regarding your Bishop. I’m sorry to hear it. When I said “your”, I meant it in the greater sense. I was thinking of my favorite Archbishop in Colorado.

The Pope was Time’s person-of-the-year at least once, so I was also thinking of him.

Regardless of the reason, I just don’t understand why people should be disparaged over the items I quoted. I never said they would be in heaven.

Pax,

Robert

I’m not disparaged. Just eager to contribute my 2-cents. 😉
