In the spring of 1979
In the of Britain's "Winter of Discontent"
Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Party
Won a landslide victory
The Iron Lady the of a fading Britain
The 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, believed, do better
"Some seem to believe
That people should be numbers in a state computer
We should be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, thank heavens, is quite like anyone else
However much the socialists
May otherwise
And we believe that everyone
Has the 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 have never hidden that fact"
"I think the Honorable knows
That I have the same contempt
For his socialist policies
As the the people of Europe
Who have experienced them..."
She was in her faith
That her conservative vision was right
"One of the great debates of our time
Is about 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 only by your savings
Or by you more
And it's no good someone else will pay
That someone else is you"
She knew Ronald Reagan knew
That free and a free people
Are the best against tyranny
And that comes through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
Wars are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
They 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 influence and decline
The other a renewed American dream
We all want
"Mr. Chairman
People want to live in peace
lasting peace
The peace that comes
From independence of the state
And being able to run your own life
Spend your own money
And make your own choices
And, all
The peace of a country
Which is properly defended
Against any potential adversary"
As we take stock of our choices
