TIME magazine readers are busy stuffing the ballot box for WikiLeaks founder in hiding Julian Assange for the 2010 Person of the Year award.
From TIME
Assange’s exploits have cemented him as a candidate for TIME’s 2010 Person of the Year — so much so that past TIME 100 honores went out on a limb to explain why he was their choice. “For better or for worse, Julian Assange has changed the accessibility to knowledge of the two wars that involve the U.S., within a matter of months,” said Lauren Zalaznick, president of NBC Universal Women and Lifestyle Entertainment Networks. “He has also put journalistic integrity on a knife-blade edge: What is the responsibility of the journalist to make public or keep private?”
More than 80,000 readers have cast their vote for Assange. Make your voice heard for any one of our candidates by voting at TIME.com. Or, talk about all the highlights in person at one of our 40 meetup locations around the globe.
The liberal media doesn’t seem to be too concerned with the ballot box stuffing going on for Assange which is in marked contrast to how they felt about the voting for Bristol Palin on DWTS. The difference here is that the liberal media loves Assange while they hate all things Palin.
Even if Assange wins it really doesn’t mean much as the award has been given to an odd mix of people in recent years especially in 2006 when it was given to You as in all of us.
Rather than give the award to a man who exposes government secrets and endangers lives in the process wouldn’t a better choice be our troops who have sacrificed mightily to protect our country and freedom around the world?
I think so.

Assange’s effort to undermind our military will in turn undermine our First Amendment rights regarding the Internet I fear in the near future.
