Lady Thatcher, The Iron Lady Has Passed from The Scene

Lady Thatcher, the goddess of money redistribution to the wealthy has died. Though some still revere her, the fact is that during her third term in office her own party shit canned her. Though the Soviets gave her the sobriquet that she embraced with delight, the Iron Lady, it did in fact suggest something important about her character. . .she didn't have an ounce of compassion for the poor and dispossessed.

It's much too soon for an assessment of Lady Thatcher in an historical sense, but my guess is that she will be noted by future historians as a short sighted, narrow mined ideologue who exacerbated problems that would have been more easily ameliorated by a leader with a broader less partisan, extremist world view. May she rest in peace!
