34. Done 55.2% against at this time and

I took the TIME to write an email to the editor as well. Hope the rest of you did too. Just a simple, Bush isn't even my president let alone person of the year! 51% of Americans didn't even vote for him, or did we? Then... Why don't you try reporting on election fraud? Here are a few websites to help you along... I know I have found them much more informative and accurate than anything I have seen in the "media" for quite some TIME now!

Not very nice, but I'm not up to being nice about it anymore!

If he won the "popular vote" by 3 million wouldn't be more likely that he'd be ahead in Time's the popular opinion poll?

[mirandapriestly]

53. no. 56.4%

I guess now that the selection is over, no one is bothering to fix all the poll numbers

[Chimpanzee]

62. I votes 200-300 times

[txindy]

61. The only bright spot I see in this is the cover

That is the worst rendering of Junior I have ever laid eyes on! ROFL! Bleah! That's just awful. Bar must be having a whole herd of cows right about now. They finally gave her baby some recognition and they crown it with a hideous painting. I doubt Pickles cares. Senior is probably chewing on the furniture because it isn't him. Folks in Florida should be on the lookout for earthquakes with their epicenter in the Gov.'s mansion. ;)

I certainly voted 'no', but considering he is now in the company of the likes of Hitler, Stalin, and Khomeini as Time's MOTY, it seems rather fitting. He doesn't deserve it for the reasons Time gives us, though. Those are sheer nonsense.

[goodboy]

64. done

[evolvenow]

68. That cover needs a 911 Hitler moustache!! Done!!Here is the letter I sent

Let Time what I thought...

To: [e-mail]
Subject: Bush is a War Criminal...

It is absolutely hideous to give praise to Bush and his thugs.
They have attempted to steal two elections, killed over 121,200+ people in illegal wars, have reversed protection of children, women, the environment, not to mention the intentional elimination of civil rights of all citizens of this country...
and they are just getting started on their psychotic obsession with turning this nation into a police state. These war criminals will not be happy until they have occupied every natural resource on this planet, destroyed innocent countries, and many thousands of decent American's sons and daughters lie in their graves, or worse, return home devastated for the rest of their lives by the trauma of killing innocent people for oil.

[Downtown Hound]

Because it is sooo freakin hilarious!

"NOTE: This is an unscientific, informal survey for the interest and enjoyment of TIME.com users and may not be indicative of popular opinion."

By the way it's about 57 percent NO right now, but remember, it's "not indicative of of popular opinion"

I'm beginning to wonder if this might be our new election system! Aren't you?

"As democracy is perfected, the office of the president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
--H.L. Mencken (1880-1956)

[demo dutch]

93. What do you expect It's Timer Warner! shows you how

bias the media is! Dumb people of this country have no idea!

[StephanieMarie]

95. Done. And here's my letter to their editor:

By supporting President Bush with your Person of the Year Award, you immerse yourself in the blood of innocent Iraqii’s. You take their blood on your hands by supporting this war criminal. G.W. Bush has presided over the deaths of more innocent civilians (over 100,000) than Milosevic and Saddam combined. By honoring him, you share his guilt. You are complicit. Shame on you.

[Absolute Truth]

113. Not to nitpick....

But Saddam sure as hell killed way over 100,000. Let's not let our dislike for W blind us to Hussein's savagery.

[floridadem30]

96. done, 59.3% no

[lthuedk]

97. F A S C I S T of the Y E A R : Set him up and we'll take him down!

[demo dutch]

98. This is just as bad as the news bit that said "Moral Values"

decided the election! I think NOT!!! How can Time vote him the man of the year, when his approval rating has fallen below 50%. It a Rove strategy once again! a perfect example of the News conglomerates spoonfeeding the people!

[demo dutch]

99. Better yet, complain to the Magazine. Email address is: [e-mail]

[Niche]

100. 59% no - i like that it says it's for their enjoyment and not...

scientific. it's such a riot and do you really believe this (oh my too many derogatory-ees running through my brain) won the election?

[Helga Scow Stern]

101. 59+% NO. Time should be ashamed, very ashamed. n/t

[rodeodance]

103. 59.4 % say NO so far!!

[madison2000]

102. DU is a real force!!

When I got this link in an email last night it was 52.8 to 48.1 against Bush.
Now (a little over 12 hours later) its 59.4 to 40.6!

Gee, nobody voted more than once, did they?!

[HEAVYHEART]

104. Vote more than once?

Who muah? No way! Yup, DU is a real force indeed! :bounce:

[HEAVYHEART]

105. ..

Our number is down to 57.5%. Come on people! Let's make our number go up! Vote NO!!!

[cry baby]

106. Voted again, it's at 57.7% now, is it being freeped? 11:50 CST

[Absolute Truth]

108. Yep

Please Freep Time Man of Year poll!

[HEAVYHEART]

109. Bastards.

I knew it. Let's keep voting NO!!!!

[peabody71]

107. kick

[dbonds]

110. Not just freeped, but botted, it is jumping by hundreds of votes

[Angry Girl]

111. Now it's 57.3% NO

[dzika]

112. No votes dropping!

No votes have gone from 59% to 56% in about an hour!

Someone is making an effort to turn this thing around.

[dogindia]

115. seems like you can just keep voting

does not seem right. People can just sit there and vote all day. How can this have any value. One would think that there should be a rejection by computer addresss if over one vote.

[madison2000]

116. Yeah, its kind of like American Idol that way

but if there is no login, thats the way it is. Not meant to be scientifically accurate.

[bush_is_wacko]

118. Yeah, that's so they can ultimately create as many votes as they need to

Get him ELECTED! Sound familiar?

[johnaries]

114. Done. 56.7% no

[Kellis]

117. 56.4

its gone from 56.8 to 56.4 in a matter of 1 minute.

Vote no!!

[progressoid]

119. 57.3% NO

[bush_is_wacko]

120. 57.2 % now and I didn't re-vote

just click the vote button without choosing yes or no and you can keep a tally.

[demo dutch]

121. The reply I got from Time Mag. in answer to my complaint

From: Time Letters
To: me...
Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2004 3:41 PM
Subject: Person of the Year (was Re: Person of the Year)

Dear Reader:

We regret your disappointment over the selection of President Bush as TIME's Person of the Year. But perhaps we should remind you of the traditional standard by which the editors make their annual choice. The Person of the Year is not an award or a tribute. The question at the center of the selection process is, Who or what, for better or worse, has affected the way we live today? The answer to that question could be a force for good (for example, Winston Churchill, Man of the Year, 1940; Dwight Eisenhower, 1944) or for evil (Adolf Hitler, Man of the Year, 1939; Ayatullah Khomeini, 1979). And to the latter, President George W. Bush must be added for 2004 -- there is no one else whose agenda and actions in the past year had such universal impact. As managing editor Jim Kelly noted in his Letter From the Editor, Bush has had his highs and lows over the past four years, but in the end he prevailed in the 2004 election by "persuading a majority of voters this time around that he deserved to be in the White House for another four years."

Thank you for writing. We appreciated having the opportunity to respond to your concerns.

Best wishes.

It seems to be one user one vote now.

I got this message from a friend:

I was clicking on it for an hour straight but then I noticed it starts to go backwards to the original tally before I kept hitting. I think there is a maintenance sweep going on that monitors the ip addresses or something that are voting. When it sees duplicates I think it deletes them.
