In the spring of 1979
In the wake of Britain's "Winter of Discontent"
Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Party
Won a landslide victory
The Iron Lady took the 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 British governmen
Was to decline
Britain, should believed, could do better
"Some seem to believe
That people should be in a state computer
We believe they 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 that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
Every human being 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 have never hidden fact"
"I think the Honorable knows
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
That her conservative was right
"One of the debates of our time
Is about how of money
Should be spent by the state
And how much you should keep
To spend on your family
If the wishes to more
It can do so only by borrowing your savings
Or by you more
And it's no thinking someone else will pay
That someone else is you"
She knew what Ronald Reagan knew
That free markets and a free people
Are the best 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 an aggressor
he can achieve his objectives
At an price"
now stands at a crossroads
One path leads to deficits
Decreasing influence and decline
The other a renewed American dream
We all want
"Mr. Chairman
to live in peace
peace
The peace that comes
independence of the state
And being able to run your own life
Spend own money
And make your own choices
And, above all
The of a country
Which is defended
Against any adversary"
As we take stock of our choices
The legacy of Britain's Iron Lady
