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 helm of a fading Britain
The sick man of Europe
As it had come to be known
But she refused to that decay
Was inevitable
And that the job of the British governmen
Was to decline
Britain, believed, could do better
"Some seem to believe
That people be in a computer
We believe they be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, thank heavens, is quite else
However the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we believe that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
human being is equally important"
And while she had no shortage of critics
"The Prime Minister is aware that
I detest every single one of her domestic policies
And I never hidden fact"
"I think the Gentleman knows
That I have the same contempt
For his policies
As the the people of east Europe
Who have them..."
She was in her faith
That her vision was right
"One of the great debates of our time
Is about how much of your money
be spent by the state
And how much you should keep
To spend on your family
If the state wishes to more
It can do so only by borrowing your savings
Or by you more
And it's no good thinking someone else will pay
That is you"
She what Ronald Reagan knew
That free markets and a free people
Are the best defense against tyranny
And that through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
are caused when an aggressor
Believes he can achieve his objectives
At an acceptable price"
America now stands at a crossroads
One leads to deficits
Decreasing and decline
The other a renewed American dream
We all want
"Mr. Chairman
People want to in peace
peace
The comes
From 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 peace of a country
Which is properly defended
any potential adversary"
