In the of 1979
In the 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 to accept decay
Was inevitable
And that the job of the British governmen
Was to manage decline
Britain, should believed, could 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 like anyone else
the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we believe that everyone
Has the to be unequal
But to us
being is equally important"
And while she had no of critics
"The Minister is that
I detest every single one of her domestic policies
And I have that fact"
"I the Gentleman knows
That I have the same contempt
For his socialist policies
As the the people of east Europe
Who experienced them..."
She was secure in her faith
That her conservative vision was right
"One of the great of our time
Is about how much of your money
Should be by the state
And how you should keep
To on your family
If the state wishes to spend more
It can do so only by borrowing your savings
Or by taxing you more
And it's no good thinking someone else will pay
That else is you"
She knew Ronald Reagan knew
That free markets and a free people
Are the defense against tyranny
And that peace comes through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
They are caused when an aggressor
he can achieve his objectives
At an acceptable price"
America now at a crossroads
One path leads to deficits
Decreasing influence and decline
The other a American dream
We all want
"Mr. Chairman
People want to live in peace
Real lasting 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 peace of a country
is properly defended
Against any potential adversary"
As we take stock of our choices
The legacy of Britain's Lady
Remains a steadfast guide
