President Barack Obama - Time Person of the Year

[honeychile]

What about all of the people who rescued others or pets during Hurricane Sandy? Or even the news media, who do their level every day to make our opinions for us? The President did nothing worthwhile to deserve this honor, on the contrary, there are still many events to which he hasn't answered (or had his staff answer).

Well what did he do to deserve winning a Noble Peace Prize? I think this honor is small bones compared to that. Hopefully this is the last of the unwarranted "shout-outs" the media gives to Obama. Since he can't win or lose another term maybe the media will finally quit doting over him and actually start holding the administration accountable for its missteps and inaction. Oh wait, that might tarnish his legacy.
