She was fabulous.
Stellar!!!! I wish I had seen her live...will try to do so otherwise.
Ping for Baroness Thatcher's words.
Semper Fi
My vet (cold war NATO captain, 60s-era visitor to Russia) was a little misty today as we talked of our mutual admiration for Reagan. He'd just been listening to Thatcher.
(Hot spot meds, two arthritis meds -- need a day or two between them, one's a cadillac, one's a toyota, decide what's best, and since he's gained 10 pounds since last visit, looks like I've got a Diet Buddy for the month of June. Looking for Science Diet Senior "light" ... feed store here didn't have it.)
Thank you, I had missed Lady Thatcher's remarks.
What a tribute by a true friend!
=== a cheerful and invigorating presence
therein lies a major difference between Idealists -- men of conviction who can be counted on always to abide by those convictions -- and Pragmatists of the "personally opposed, but ..." variety.
Absolutely, I heard the end of her marks on the radio, and was deeply stirred by her oratory. She is a Baroness with a lion's heart and a true friend to Ronnie and our country.
This, most of all, broke me up.
The 'Iron Maiden' was spectacular!
By the way, did you see Evita's face? That woman is disturbed. If she can only put such a hateful and smug face on for the event, why didn't she stay home? She's such a wormy little dirt ball, so small and tactless.
Bump for later reading!
What a classy Lady...
Oh yes, her speech was quiet political...it destroyed the hopes and dreams of John Kerry. We now will go out, and win one for Gipper. Let no liberal lefty bad mouth the Reagan era...lest he find a thousand people ready to defend the best days of our lives.
If President Reagan has an equal in this world it is Lady Thatcher. God Bless the Iron Lady.
God bless the Iron Lady. What a fabulous speech. How utterly moving. They don't make them like that any more!
No... they were hoping that you didn't read the text or see the eulogy... they were hoping to push this great eulogy for this great man into Wellstone territory...
Wait for the rest of the alphabet networks to do the same.. they will try to make the Republicans "pay" for making a funeral a "Political rally" JUST LIKE THE DEMOCRATS DID...
the libs are pathetic b#tches and punks... so typical of them to try to make political what is truly inspirational. They are the ultimate aparatchik for the world wide war against American freedom. They are the "thought police" and propaganda arm of the communist, socialist, radical muslims that hope to bring down our country.
screw 'em ..... God Bless America.
She was amazing. Sigh! I cried during her part.
I missed it. Did she speak "live," or was the message pre-recorded?
