The Real Legacy of Margaret Thatcher, Britain's Iron Lady by The Heritage Foundation

In the spring of 1979
In the wake of Britain's "Winter of Discontent"
Margaret Thatcher's (1)________________________ Party
Won a (2)__________________ victory
The Iron Lady took the helm of a fading Britain
The sick man of Europe
As it had come to be known
But she refused to (3)____________ (4)________ decay
Was inevitable
And that the job of the British governmen
Was to manage decline
Britain, should believed, could do better

"Some socialists seem to believe
That (5)____________ (6)____________ be numbers in a state computer
We believe (7)________ should be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, thank heavens, is quite like anyone else
However much the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we believe that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
Every (8)__________ (9)__________ is equally important"

And while she had no shortage of critics
"The Prime Minister is aware that
I detest every (10)____________ one of her (11)________________ policies
And I have (12)__________ hidden that fact"
"I think the Honorable Gentleman knows
That I (13)________ the (14)________ contempt
For his socialist policies
As the the people of (15)________ Europe
Who have experienced them..."
She was secure in her faith
That her conservative vision was right
"One of the (16)__________ debates of our time
Is about how much of your money
Should be (17)__________ by the state
And how much you (18)____________ keep
To spend on your family
If the state wishes to spend more
It can do so only by borrowing your savings
Or by (19)____________ you more
And it's no good thinking (20)______________ (21)________ will pay
That someone (22)________ is you"
She (23)________ what Ronald Reagan knew
That free markets and a (24)________ people
Are the best defense against tyranny
And that peace comes through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
Wars are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
They are caused (25)________ an aggressor
Believes he can achieve his objectives
At an acceptable price"

America now stands at a crossroads
One (26)________ leads to deficits
Decreasing influence and decline
The other a renewed American dream
We all want

"Mr. Chairman
People want to (27)________ in peace
Real lasting peace
The peace (28)________ comes
From independence of the state
And being able to run your own life
Spend (29)________ own money
And make your own choices
And, above all
The peace of a country
Which is properly defended
Against any potential adversary"
As we take stock of our choices
The legacy of Britain's Iron Lady
Remains a steadfast guide
