    I was thinking those same words LW. Think about the times she was in. The IRA was bombing people and nearly got her, the Falklands, the whole Iron Curtain deal, she served in a very difficult time. The don't make 'em like they used to.

    One of the very few "politicians" I ever had any respect for.

    "If you start out trying to please people, you will never get anywhere". A nice quote of hers.

    Yeppers .... GREAT lady. And she had more balls than ANYONE in our frigging government ever THOUGHT of growing. She tackled the unions and WON! Now tell me THAT doesn't take balls the size of Manhatten! (I'm sure you all know I'm a major supporter of trade unions!)
