WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama says former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was both a great champion of freedom and an example to women everywhere.
In a statement issued Monday by the White House, Obama said Britain's first woman prime minister showed "our daughters that there is no glass ceiling that can't be shattered."

It took his speechwriters a bit of time to come up w a weak statement. GW Bush, Bibi and others released statements long before Obummer and to me they were very heartfelt (wouldn’t be surprised if each one of them wrote their staements themselves).
Just heard on FNC that Greta is going to have a Special on the Iron Lady on her show tonight.
BTW - FNC has played or read her statement a few times this morning wrt (paraphrasing) The only problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people’s money. I recall that phrase and I can’t help but think it made Obummer and his handlers and the Dims cringe.
How did I know that this Student Council geek would strike exactly the wrong note?
A giant of history has passed and he wants to inject his juvenile feminist candyfloss.
Margeret Thatcher speaks to Obama from the grave
**************
Even though she was a woman, she was/is twice the man obama is.
My hands are sore from clapping and my eyes are full of tears. Gpd bless Baroness Thatcher. The mold is broken and there will never be another like her.
Thank you so much for the link.
First we have to recognize that His Maximum Eminence did not write this rather bland notice. One of his political fools wrote it for him, may have run it by him and put it out. The thrust of the comment was to underline his political agenda, nothing more. I truly wish this guy and his entire administration would vaporize.
“I truly wish this guy and his entire administration would vaporize.”
LOL...The N. Koreans would like to make this happen.
“our daughters that there is no glass ceiling that can’t be shattered.”
So long as evil conservatives quit holding women down! Oh, wait....
His glass ceiling comment is interesting given what he and his campaign did to Hillary! In 2008.
typical of an idiot] whose whole life is shaped around identity politics.
Margret Thatcher was not a female prime minister.
she was a prime minister ... that happened to be female.
there’s a VERY significant difference
The clown is a chumpion for the lazy moochers.
Not really....check this out:
Obama isn't qualified to clean the mud off Margaret Thatcher's boots.
> Obama is not even qualified to hold her coat.
For shining her shoes, maybe okay.
Right. Even 30 years ago, there was no glass ceiling.
And Margaret Thatcher didn't need government-funded spaying, morning-after pills or regularly-scheduled abortions in order to have a successful political career and rise to the top levels of leadership.
She just had to be hard-working, smart, robustly conservative and twice as capable as any socialist man.
Fortunately, that's not too hard!
