It was the decade of financial reckoning. Years of strangling business and trying to paper it over with cheap money finally caught up with this country. The Green mentality (religion) that you could be pristine and still have enough jobs ran into the obvious contradiction that didn’t enter their hallucination.

Reality finally caught up with the fantasies of socialism, and the ugly bill was presented.

Glad to know Andy Sewer ( spelling on purpose) would prefer that Saddam Hussein was still in power, we never defended against terrorists operating out of Afghanistan and that of course a hurricane hitting a city mostly below sea level is Bush’s fault. Oh, and tax cuts are for rubes, and government bureaucrats are our angels.

Libtards live in a world of never ending foolishness.

When are the losers at time going to just swallow their pride and change their name to “Waiting Room Weekly”?

There used to be a saying:

Life Magazine - for people who can’t read.

Time Magazine - for people who can’t think.

I believe we haven’t yet seen the worst of it.

The power mongers aren’t going to slither away to wait for another election cycle this time.

I expect we’ll see some awful event before April comes around.

I nominate the 70’s. Started with the Vietnam War and Watergate and ended with the disaster of the Carter presidency....

The 80’s were the best.

Hope we follow a similar pattern now....

it all depends on what you consider ‘hell’. me? i see evil as easy to spot... so if someone were to ask what was the worse thing to happen from the last 10 years, i would name it without much hesitation.

the roughly 14 million America kids that were killed in the name of liberal ‘freedom’

just to add a little perspective to this rubbish

I would agree that the 2000s were a decade from hell, primarily for one reason: The return and rise of liberalism and all the evil that has come with that. The election of W in 2000 game them a sick source of strength, ensnaring more and more Americans with each passing year with their lies. We saw W being defamed with more viciousness each year. We saw the sick liberals regaining Congress in 2006, and we finally saw them recapture the White House in 2008 with an absolute Marxist and anti-American.
The only question now is will it be too late to reverse this horrible trend?

These guys are hilarious!

I saw a thing on the History Channel about the biggest threatts to life on Earth.

After discussing the Yellowstone Calderon, huge meteorites, and nuclear proliferation, guess what number 1 was?

Global Warming!

They are so over the top with this crap it makes it obvious to even the slowest among us that they have an agenda.

Maybe getting Time to learn how to count might be an improvement.

January 1, 2001 was the first day of the new decade and it still has a year until it ends on December 31, 2010 (e.g. the 10th year of the 2000’s). 2000 was the 10th year of the 1990’s.

The 1860’s - 500,000 American dead out of a much smaller population than we have today. The decade from 1911 through 1920 - WWI and a severe recession at the end. The 1940’s - WWII. The i960’s - 50,000 American dead in Vietnam, race riots, cultural anarchy, the Great Society, poitical assasinations. None of these decades caught Time’s attention?

TIME can’t wait 12 months until the actual end of the decade because they won’t be in business that long.

haha, that’s what I was just thinking, too.

yet again, OM “covers” crucial stories by covering them up (flight 297 just one case in point).

Rallying around Obama was an "amazingly great thing," but conservatives spoiled that trend.

Boo fnn HOO!

Those calling it the worst decade were the same ones who kept telling us how bad it was when we were having a pretty good time.

Our economy recovered after 9/11, unemployment was almost zero with companies having trouble finding people to work for them, no more 9/11s when we all were sure there would more, algore and Kerry didn't become President...

Yet, through it all, the media was able to report doom and gloom, doing their best to convince us how bad we had it until we finally elected a demonrat majority and now a President who have helped to make that doom and gloom a reality.

This was far from our worst decade, but unless we are able to flush congress and the presidency, this next decade certainly will be.

I liked the 90’s. They were fun! I graduated from College, got married, had my first two children, had more fun. To go back to those days would be wonderful. I must admit that the 2000’s were not bad for my family. I know that some had it pretty bad though. Each decade has some people wishing it would last forever and others who wish it never came. the 80’s for me were ok...grade school and high school. Who really wants to return to those years???? 70’s were horrible as I remember sitting in the car as a 8 year old waiting for Dad to get gas for his car.
