True ‘dat......
True ‘dat......
* Julian Assange
Who?
* Glenn Beck
They already did a cover of him earlier this year.
* The Chilean Miners
Why?
* Arne Duncan
Who?
* Lady Gaga
Get real.
* Hu Jintao
Why?
* LeBron James
How come? His team didn’t win the NBA Championship this year and making him PotY would tick off the entire city of Cleveland.
* Steve Jobs
Because Apple is one of their sponsors?
* Hamid Karzai
Just another corrupt third-world leader. Nothing to see here.
* David and Charles Koch
Never heard of them.
* Barack Obama
Already was PotY in 2008.
* Sarah Palin
I doubt they would pick her.
* Nancy Pelosi
Biggest shame to America of the year.
* Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert
Unfunny comedians who don’t write their own material?
* The Unemployed American
Maybe, although again picking groups rather than individuals is silly.
* Mark Zuckerberg
I don’t even use Facebook.
Only because thousands of Doctors,Dentists,and Hair Benders think customers in the waiting room actually read that crap
