McCain: Petraeus, Not Putin, Is Man Of The Year

[MsItalian82]

Great! John Mccain hai coglioni sul serio!

[thegreendestiny]

Haha. McCain is dead jealous for sure. Sorry, but he will never be one.

[resevilMGS]

Lol hes fo fucked up about it!!!

a russian guy on Times magazin n man of the Yeah XDDD

[dave777blaster]

Putin makes them both look like fruit flies .

Sorry but that's the brutal truth of the matter.

Putin is dynamic those guys are are not.

Especially McCain he's a fruit fly for sure. they call him the Canary for his singing to the

Vietcong .

Americans are stuck with despicable people as politicians because they blindly vote along party lines and have not as of yet evolved a third party.

[pushups2345]

dont send messeges to my inbox you fucking communist

fyi violence in iraq reached an all time low thanks to gen. petraeus's leadership - and an elected gov is no longer in danger of being overthrown b/c of it

and by the way, did they ever catch anyone for the 1999 apartment bombings other then those 3 putin fsb agents?

hmmm...

as vp biden said: you have a shrinking population base, a withering economy, and cling to a past empire that was not justified

yeah, some leader

[pushups2345]

well, petraeus made a nation free and able to survive better then the dead evil communist empire

its freedom v. dead evil communism and saggy man-boobs

[pushups2345]

i totaly agree with mccain, that's how it should have been

[JustifiedMeAlways]

Your Mc Cain is too old and got this mess in his head about communists and cold war. Choose him and he'll for sure ruin our relations. He saw letters in somebody's eyes.. What a crap.

[hansontm]

ooooh, tough talk....mccain is old world

"Russian people love Putin as much as Americans dislike Bush"

Russian people love Putin as much as Al Quida hates USA.

[VictorWasechkin]

mccain is a pig :)

[redcollargedeon]

Putin? PUTIN?! Who would even consider Putin on that list? Ridiculous.

Communism is clearly not as dead as we thought.

Go McCain, and thank you General Patraeus.

[ynnyytty]

First off, Putin is as much of a communist as a potato is a car. You obviously don't understand the meaning of communism, and you obviously don't know John McCain that well either. McCain is more of a Socialist than he is a republican. McCain disagrees with the constitution and the founding fathers and he agrees with the UN, WTO, CFR and TWB.

[redcollargedeon]

China is communist, but they do have more free business these days. It's a capitalistic dictatorship, or something.

Russia has been doing something in that sense too.

But you know what? They're still communists. They still hate America. They still want to control the population and expand onto their neighbors to recreat the USSR.

Nothing's changed.

[JustifiedMeAlways]

We are not communists for a long time ago, but the USA is the only one who really still hates us, and makes those fairy tales about Russia. Example:

Mc Cain - 'When i saw Putin i could see 3 letters in his eyes : KGB.' Very funny, what for was that said? Is he an extrasense? What letters? What KGB? Hello? You, only you by urselves create these problems from NOTHING.

[redcollargedeon]

Gorbachev was a communist, albeit he was a friendly looking communist.

Yeltin was a communist.

Putin is a communist.

His sockpuppet is a communist.

NOTHING has changed. They still rule Russia. They still sell weapons to terrorist states. They still ship rockets and ammo to Africa. Wake up.

[zio5q]

yeah im sure, i bet you havent even been to russia.

[dave777blaster]

You must be uneducated

America sells the most weapons in the world today and they do not care much who buys them.

[alexgrinkov]

@redcollargedeon

"Terrorist" is a politically correct substitution for the word "ideological enemy". The list of terrorists is declared by the US government and y'all blindly follow it, lol. I guess, by terrorist states you mean Iran? Gosh. How brainwashed you are. Iran (or Persia) have been out there for millenia... Russia -- since 9-th century. They do not care about "conclusions" from a bunch of some 200-years old teens.

[008Sajid800]

@alexgrinkov nice to see this view point. US likes to say muslims are terrorists but to many muslims, the US govt is like the biggest terrorist

[JustinR81]

Putin isn't communist moron, neither has Russia been for 17 years or the two presidents who preceded Putin or according to Russians Russia was socialist before Perestroika. Putin has done what Yeltsin squandered, which has been to stabilise Russia at the expense of democracy which if you travel to Russia isn't as important as putting food on the table. Putin has increased prosperity and simply stopped an American carte-blanche to set up McDonalds and rubber dog-shit stands on every street corner

[redcollargedeon]

Calling me a moron just proves you just lost this argument. Bring facts next time.

[JustinR81]

I lost the argument? I just destroyed you with facts and direct experience. I lived in Russia for 3 months, can you tell me about Perestroika? Rhetorical question actually, I think you have no clue about anything otherwise you would've debunked my argument.

[redcollargedeon]

If you say so.

[WNanette]

Oh - forgot why I posted... General Petraus is a CFR member as well.

Interesting.

Surely he's fully aware of David Rockefeller's one-world government (and as such, one-world bank) bent?

[WNanette]

John McCain -

if you love America and it's Constitution, why do you rub elbows with David Rockefeller and his CFR?!!

[lifeh0use]

lol is mccain kidding ?

[ArtGaul]

hey maybe if McCain wins maybe Putin will get even more money from oil and become even more popular.

John McCain = Keating 5 scandal - millions of pensioners lost everything in part due to this man!

[StronnySam]

Vote for McCain! I want to see how americans will drown in a shit! (((:

[j0hnnymonkey]

Kissinger attended the 2007 bilderburg meeting - John McCain is not any different from George W. - and with kissinger's endorsement it is obvious the bilderburg group interests support John Mccain.

dont vote for him.

[WNanette]

Thank You Johnny-

HilLIARy too, don't forget!

[skyraptor]

DAMN RUSSOPHIBE >:E

[bittyrock]

I served in the Military for 6 Years and to be Honest Time Magazine can choose whoever the Fuck they want to because we're Fighting a War because of Lies! NOW WE'RE FIGHING A WAR ON TERROR - I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A WAR ON WMD - PEOPLE FAIL TO REALIZE THAT THERE WAS NO TERRORIST IN IRAQ UNTIL THE UNITED STATES INVADED IRAQ - I DON'T AGREE WITH SADDAM HUSSEINS POLICY BUT HE DIDN'T HAVE TERRORIST IN HIS COUNTRY BEFORE WE INVADED IT...THE WAR IN IRAQ HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE WAR ON TERROR!

[tmyers11185]

Uhhh...does the name Abu Nidel ring a bell? Ass.

[ynnyytty]

Abu Nidel was a Mossad agent working for the state of Israel. The very agency that has received all of its funding from the people of the United States of America.

[tmyers11185]

The same Palestinian terrorist Nidal who rejected any peaceful coexistence with Israel? The same man who hated and loathed Israel? Hmmm...

[chr0nik666]

Putin owns McCain!!!

[the3rdshooter]

Yeah he owned him for 6 years as a POW. Not anymore. Putin a thug!

[Lane4411]

Why hasn't Col. H.R. McMaster been promoted, this guy was a strong opponent of Rumsfeld and other civilian masters.

Despite Presidential acclaim for his counterinsurgency campaign in Tal Afar and his position as an adviser to General Petraeus, Col. McMaster has been passed over for promotion to Brigadier General two years in a row.[3]

[cyberbrain000]

Putin was in the KGB which makes him a bad ass by default.

[padvodnei]

McCain needs to get a popsicle out of his ass.

[beingisbecoming4]

Oh my, McCain doesn't want you to see this video.

[eldor07]

Russian people love Putin as much as Americans dislike Bush.

[ogukuo72]

Wow, I didn't realize the Russians disliked Putin that much. ;p

[LastPyrrhicVictory]

"Man of the year" is not really an honour. It's given to the person who affects the world's events the MOST, within that given year.

Perhaps John McCain shouldn't play off the ignorance of the American people?

[teratorn]

All too often Republicans and Democracts are two sides of the same coin. Though there are differences, to be sure...

But in the end they're both selling America out. Corporatism doesn't really care which party is in power. The Fed doesn't care.

It's all just business as usual.

But some people are waking up, and Ron Paul is the only man they can turn to.

[acorpsfan]

McCain is a courageous guy - he suffered for years in a prison camp, when he could have been released much sooner had he only "confessed"; he has the balls to say what he believes. Do you think that we have ever, or will ever, hear Hillary's true thoughts and "beliefs"? (Although I would be a little bit afraid to know what those might be.)

I don't agree with everything McCain has been involved with politically as of late. But I do know that this is a man with integrity.

[decieveusnot9]

McCain is a CFR member, the wants and lusts of his bosses, he will do.  Henry Kissinger endorsed him, if that tells you anything.

[patitotigre]

You (Ron Paul desesperados) all come on here to attempt to wage a war within our party...the Republican Party. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. We should be working together to beat the Democrats from stealing our economic future and leadership standing in the world. McCain's support is growing stronger than ever. He is the face of the new GOP. God Bless America!

[Globox822]

zionist slave

[scorpnov3]

Don't be angry caue putin serves the russians.You will celebrate when Time choses puppet Gary Kasparov.

[TheRealCritique]

Al Gore should have been man of the year, but TIME magazine, being the patsy it is, couldn't name him. Petraeus deserves credit for stemming the bloodshed of the Iraq fiasco, but anyone that thinks Iraq is stabilized is dreaming. Bush should've probably been named man of the year for doing the most destruction to the most powerful country on earth, militarily, socially, and economically. Putin isnt a man, but a midget lucky enough to have oil wealth to further his stalinist goals.

[patitotigre]

John McCain has had a lifetime's service to our country and states he has "never done any favors for anybody — lobbyist or special interest group." AP

He is the only Republican who can beat Hillary Clinton in a National election" -realclearpolitics

[TheKillerZombie]

General Petraeus sure does deserve more recognition for his great work in Iraq.

[qsong6]

you americans are real devil and fool. all people in the world have the right to do their own business!!!!!!

[patitotigre]

You must be either a terrorist/a communist or a cowardly sympathizer of the two.

[the3rdshooter]

Correction, Most the people have the right to do their own business!! Thanks in large part to the United States and allies.

[patitotigre]

I served under General Petraeus while in Iraq. He is a very effective leader and inspires Soldeirs of all ranks. He is deserving of such an honor.

[paranhosfabiogmail]

General Petraeus, be ashamed. American fools, don't fall with this crap.

[TheTallestTree]

I agree with McCain 100% on Petraeus as man of the year!

Putin is a dictator and is set to become de facto czar at the end of his term.

Shame on Time for selecting a controversial person, just to sell more darn magazines!

[GIJonathan730]

You're right....you're right

[Globox822]

you probably dont know who that is, but because everyone is saying that name since put was named "man of the year", you just "agree".

American sheep

[Mintos77]

Funny, the people he governs don't seem to think that.

But I'm sure you know more about Putin from polarized media that can't be bothered to print one uncut interview with him then people who actually deal with his decisions on a daily basis and understand that all this propaganda is bullshit.

Putin is about as much a dictator as Yeltsin, whom the west loved.
