In an interview with Fox News' Greta Van Susteran, former vice presidential candidate blasted Time magazine for naming President Barack Obama its "Person of the Year." "What the heck has he done?" Palin asked, besides "drive us over a fiscal cliff."

I think there’s some irrelevancy there, to tell you the truth. I mean consider their list of the most influential people in the country and the world, some who have made that list -- yours truly! That ought to tell you something right there regarding the credence that we should give Time magazine and their list of people.

Palin was on Time's list of most influential people in 2010.
