Feel Free to Pretend You Are Cancelling Your Subscriptions

Because I have a feeling few of you are subscribed.

Time Magazine Proclaims Dear Leader, Chimp of the Year.

Cue gag reflex:



And the reason is right out of SCLM Typecasting:

President Bush's bold, uncompromising leadership and his clear-cut election victory made him Time magazine's "Person of the Year" for 2004, its managing editor said on Sunday.


So many things wrong with that.

But I take some comfort, though the explanation is first-class bullshit, in this.


Pierre Laval, 1931, eventual French Traitor and Nazi Sympathizer.

1937's Prize was apparently a Deluxe Apartment in the Sky-yi-yi overlooking Central Park.

He Who Godwin Proclaims Must Not be Named, 1938.

King Commie, 1939.

Twice as Nice.

1965, Victory Just Around the Corner Man.
