He loves Thatcher and briefly golfed with her, and that is his joking way of paying tribute to her.
His joking a little with us, too, sort of like about, “strategyery”, a nod to Bush Jr.
aah, Thanks! I was wondering about that. I remember the strategery gaff, Bush made, and I actually remember William F. Buckley Jr.'s interview with "the reverend Jackson". Rush does that one very well.
