In the of 1979
In the wake of Britain's "Winter of Discontent"
Thatcher's Conservative Party
Won a landslide 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 accept that decay
Was inevitable
And that the job of the governmen
Was to decline
Britain, believed, could do better
"Some seem to believe
That people should be numbers in a computer
We they should be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, heavens, is quite like anyone else
much the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
Every human is equally important"
And while she had no shortage of critics
"The Prime Minister is aware that
I detest single one of her domestic policies
And I never hidden that fact"
"I think the Honorable Gentleman knows
That I have the same contempt
For his socialist policies
As the the people of east Europe
Who have experienced them..."
She was secure in her faith
her conservative vision was right
"One of the of our time
Is how much of your money
Should be spent by the state
And how much you should keep
To spend on your family
If the state wishes to spend more
It can do so by borrowing your savings
Or by taxing you more
And it's no good thinking someone else will pay
That someone is you"
She knew what Ronald Reagan knew
free markets and a free people
Are the best defense against tyranny
And that peace comes strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
Wars are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
They are an aggressor
Believes he can achieve his objectives
At an acceptable price"
now stands at a crossroads
One leads to deficits
Decreasing and decline
The a American dream
We all want
"Mr. Chairman
People want to in peace
Real lasting peace
The peace that comes
independence of the state
And being able to run your own life
Spend your own money
And make your own choices
And, above all
The 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
