Firstly I do believe that comrade Kim speaks highly of you, and was most distressed to hear your disparaging remarks about him, he will have you know he has joined Jenny Craig and the weight will soon be just falling off. LOL
Can I assume that now you have lost dear old Thatcher to idealise you will now turn your sycophantic lust towards someone like Marie Krarup.
The right wing Danish MP, who on a recent visit to Aotearoa, saw fit to insult the Maori people.

Seems Marie Krarup was a great admirer of Thatcher and her politics.

Good morning Paul, are you related?
A detestable thing to say, her/him not you.
But admit it, not unlike a thing Thatcher would say, her rush to be upper class has ended, unless she is buried on a hill it failed.
Still plenty of folk willing to get down on their knees.
Kim whats his name keeps millions in slavery and starvation.
Thought you might stick with his victims but as in the Argentina thing you stuck with extreme right wing fascist you baffle me with your support of a left wing one.
Greens seem uninterested in ordinary folk.

I thought that this thread had run its
course but obviously some still have a
lot to say.

I came across a site on the web that asked
the question, "Is it too much to ask that
history judges her impartially?"

And I quote:

"The truth is never as simple as it seems -
invariably the way we colour the world will
be from our own agendas, our own unique view
and that is rarely black and white...
So regardless of how we feel about her
personallly, she's far too important to ignore..."

The author ends on the note that,
"We can only hope that history judges her
impartially."

Only time will tell, I guess.

I don't know what a woman MP visiting NZ has to do with Thatcher.

However, having had a little to do with NZ navy personnel in foreign ports let me assure all that they would be more than happy if the Haka had reduced this visiting woman big knob to a quivering shocked and vulnerable gel. The Haka is supposed to be frightening, right? Otherwise why perform at footy matches - which are far more important to NZ than diplomatic relations with a minor politician from, er, where was that again?

However the truth once again is rather boring. This is yet another tabloid media eggbeat where some hate mailers took the opportunity to take multicultural slight at a article written by the said politician.

The woman was trying to be mildly entertaining in an article she wrote, as she says here (video interview),

http://www.radiolive.co.nz/Mis-translation-to-blame-for-offensive-article-says-Danish-MP-Marie-Krarup/tabid/506/articleID/34589/Default.aspx

I could go on to discuss how male bodies have become shocking and offensive through feminism. No-one is surprised that a visiting woman politician from uber-feminist Denmark could be shocked by men's bare chests and legs. Oh and there were those Marae, "decorated with God-figures with angry faces and large erect penises". Many a NZ sailor in a foreign port would give their eye teeth to be assessed the same. LOL

Oh dear, that should be 'his' not 'theirs' in the final sentence. Must be the tears in my eyes that I missed it. Tears of self-righteous shock and outrage of course, not tears from laughter.
