Mama Mia and Sex Traffic..

What an insult to a great lady.

Disgusting pigs rewriting history of the greats.
Very sad and plain ole wrong. I hope it tanks at the box office. I won’t pay money for lying trash.

If they were to make a film about Martin Luther King and what went on at the Lorraine Motel just before he was shot I think the libs would be aghast and curse the filmmakers for making such a scrofulous film. But it would not be fiction. Turnabout is fair play, you know.

The life of Lady Thatcher is astounding, there is no way a single movie could depict her life and achievements, would have to be a mini series at the very least.

Had the honor and pleasure of attending an event where the Lady gave a talk....Will never forget it..

Geeezz....I am just reading her autobiography—She had read Hayek at 20 years of age and got a degree in Chemistry at Oxford before her law degree. She was such an intelligent, Christian person, who loved everything English, but knew of her faults. She thoroughly understood the evil of socialism.

That is why the Marxists are portraying her this way....She even had read Karl Popper’s book on the Poverty of Historicism before she got her undergraduate degree-—which proved the fraud of Marx and the socialist direction her country was taking.

She was so correct in all of her views!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The burning of London is what socialism has done—besides destroy generations of Englishmen and the possibility of having any more Thatchers or Churchills!!!

The Socialists/Marxists should be hung for all the death and destruction and vile immorality they have wrought on England and the world. England needs to burn their Marxist curriculum and restore that which educated CS Lewis and Chesterton—the Christian soaked logic and reason and science of the Modern era. The Postmodernist Marxist cr*p created Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao and Pot and now is burning London.

Churchill is turning in his grave which started when the Marxist bambi returned his bust. Marxists have a revulsion of moral people who love freedom and God and Country.

The Left has been waiting forever to make this movie....hopefully everyone who invested in it loses their collective shirts.

Oh what a surprise, readers comments are currently unavailable.

Disgraceful.

The venom with which left liberals have for MT is quite amazing. Ronald Reagan has become a historical figure and even BO says positive things about him. MT, however, still produces carpet chewing rage. The left in the UK nourishes conspiracy theories about the Falklands War similar to the 9-11 Truthers. Somehow the Thatcher government manipulated Argentina to invade the Falkland Islands so MT could extend her sty as PM by ‘doing the Churchill trick’ as the left calls it. These people are as delusional as the DU is about Bush so it is no surprise this sort of weird treatment was produced as a biopic of MT.

I suspected that this might be the outcome when I heard that they were doing a movie about Lady Thatcher. I’m not at all surprised at what a bunch of leftist scoundrels do.

This Streep screed may cause her to jump the Scrod..

[grey_whiskers]

If she got a chemistry degree then that's even more to like.

Too bad I didn't know -- I could've sent her one of the "Honk if you passed P-chem" bumper stickers ;-)

Cheers!

I look forward to camping out in line not to watch that chunk of s**t.

Meryl Streep is a Reagan-hating raging Hollywood leftist.

You KNOW she wasn’t going to take ANY role that painted Thatcher in a good light.

This is one to boycott and tell your family and friends.

One thing that keeps people from going around randomly hitting other people is the fear that they will get hit back. Hollywood and the MSM have had no such fear. They produce what they want because they don't get sued often enough, and because no one is making films about them. How would Meryl Streep respond to a movie about her life that was inaccurately skewed to make her look bad? How would Larry King respond to a movie about his life, from the perspective of his ex-wives? How would Alec Baldwin react to a movie that depicted him as an angry, controlling, overweight man, and that featured the perspective of his ex-wife? etc. etc. I would think that with all the video and graphics expertise out there it wouldn't be too hard to put together a group of conservative Michael Moore types.

Another Hollyweird FAIL project. Truth will outlive their fantasy. This one will crash and burn.

I was fortunate to hear her speak at the Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles in the 1990's. Amazing woman.
