osama was on every single piece of media for 10 years...not a peep

its a news story and its a cover meant to get people to buy magazines. welcome to the business world, self righteous american douchebags.

Hitler was Time's Man of the Year in 1939 along with being their cover boy.  You should send them a complaint letter.

You can add Joseph Stalin (1942) and the Ayatollah Khomeini (1979) to that list.

Stalin is a repeat cover boy then, because he was also on their cover either shortly before or after Al Capone in 1930.

Just checked.  1939 and 1942.

Bush in 2000 and 2004.  Obama in 2008 and 2012.  Basically every president gets it at one point.  Except Gerald Ford.

I still can't believe that the Boston Mayor actually sent a complaint letter to the publishers.

He's petitioning to get Neil Diamond on the next cover.

Tomahawk

If you try to install a finely threaded bolt into a coarsely threaded hole, you'll get just enough engagement to make you think there's something wrong with you for not being able to get it started. Don't beat yourself up about it...it's not your fault; it's the stupid bolt's fault for being the wrong one.
