3. May she burn in Hell.

She earned it.

Too early to get primitive concensus yet--that is, if one's not sure how the primitives are going to react.

<<<sure how the primitives are going to react.

I was going to see how log it took. First post, 3 comments in, was the answer.

7. Look at all of the liberal compassion in this thread.

Today is going to be a great day for DU monitoring. They are going to rip each other apart trying to message control and tell each other how to behave. I might go get a six pack around noon and kick back.

Yeah, that is a problem.

It didn't used to be, back when the primitives had no idea other people were watching them.

Now that they know, they're going to try "message-controlling" all over the place.

But we know how they really feel.

[BlueStateSaint]

Who's that primitive who said words to the effect of "DU never gloats over the other side's deaths?"

I hope that primitive is never seen again.

[JohnnyReb]

You know that you have lived a good life, done great things, benefitted the world in general and left it a better place for having been when the DUmmies disparage you in death.

[USA4ME]

Double bonus overtime for the primitives now.  They get to be angry about Dear Leader over Social Security/Medicare and grave dance at the same time.  I'm surprised that more people, when observing the primtives and other liberals around the world, don't say "I sure wish I could be angry and miserable all the time just like them."  It truly boggles the mind.

I hope darkangel is paying attention to all the love and white light being sent to Conservatives from her fellow Libtards.

5. The only regret I have about her death

Is that it was from Natural causes, and not by an executioner's blade.

7. My mom always said 'speak the truth and speak it ever

cost it what it will...'

**** Margaret Thatcher - She and the other scumbag have destroyed more lives with their neo-liberal rape of humanity that I will celebrate her departure and replace that champagne I was saving for Cheney.

22. Yep. No tears for hateful murderous RWers

Good riddance.

I understand the folks here who, for spiritual/religious/etc principle or whatever don't like all this so-called 'grave dancing', express empathy to her family and such, but to them I say, hide the threads that piss you off. Let the rest of us vent.

What I will NEVER understand are those here who are acting like there was something redeeming about her political legacy. I mean   

She was a RW asshole. The fewer Thatcher-types in the world the better. And maybe someday we have a system where people like that cannot reach power.

45. Good riddance to the evil old fascist

I'm sorry. I'm not even going to pretend to be sad at the death of someone who wrecked our country and that I utterly despised. She was utterly and deliberately evil, that bloody movie was the biggest whitewash this side of Dulux and I'm glad she died and disappointed it wasn't sooner.

57. The Brits sound happy to be rid of her

And I don't disagree.

Shame we had to pretend like we cared about Reagan. 

Then ugly shows how stupid it is.

“I've never wished a {wo}man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.”

Thatcher and Reagan had charmed lives and both spent their retirement with Alzheimer's disease, utterly oblivious to the havoc they wrought throughout both countries and becoming dreadful burdens to the people around them.

I don't think this is coincidence. I think such soulless people generally end up like this, escaping any responsibility or condemnation for their actions.

It's why I wish I could believe in a hell.

ETA: "Margaret Thatcher is dead but her ideas live on. I don’t think it’s the least bit inhumane to fervently wish it was the other way round." --tweet quoted by a sweet little lady who knits.

48. So dementia and Alzheimer's are 'not a coincidence?'

'Soulless people' are more prone to them? What the hell kind of bullshit is that?

55. Long observation

That doesn't mean that good people won't get it, you know. It just means that people who lack an elemental part of the human psyche like Reagan and Thatcher did seem to get it more often.

RZM (8,150 posts)
62. Is there evidence for this?

Maybe a study linking soullessness and dementia?

If not, then it's basically mumbo jumbo.

Some people have mental problems in old age. Others have them much earlier. It's part of being human. Nothing more and nothing less. 

Hateful,despicable people.

[AprilRazz]

I was wondering how long it would take for the grave dancing to start.


Rest in peace Lady Thatcher.

4. you will find that DU is pretty good about this stuff...


Unlike the douchebag websites on the right.

Now when Cheney kicks it...all bets are off.

[Splashdown]

There will be some of Irish Catholic descent who will be less than happy with Thatcher's legacy in Northern Ireland.

I'm expecting a lot of Bobby Sands, MP-type posts on facebook, etc. I'm also surprised--but then again, not really--that the DUmp hasn't hit on this part yet. Bobby Sands, after all, was Catholic. He was imprisoned for possession of a revolver.

For my part, I'm an American who will remember her as a staunch ally in the Cold War.

As a very wise man of Northern Irish descent once told me,

"It's easy to be pro-IRA and sing rebel songs in an Irish Pub in America; it's different when you're living in fear of both the IRA and local Ulster paramilitary groups."

Oh, we'll see the same line again a couple of months down the road when some DUer brings up today's vitriol. That, or the requisite cries of, "False equivalence!" when someone compares some untoward remark by a conservative to what they're puking today.

It's all done in the name of righteousness when they do it, doncha know.

Margaret Thatcher makes DUmp democrats, for whom God does not exist, very nervous.

The fact that two once-in-centuries leaders emerged to guide the world's only two great civilizations simultaneously clearly shows the hand of God at work.

In tandem, President Reagan and Prime Minister Thatcher freed hundreds of millions of people, destroyed the world's great evil of their time, and gave mankind the framework for the longest period of unprecedented prosperity and happiness in human history.

Even today, with a godless heathen in the White House, and democrats destroying every bit of freedom that comes within their reach, we still enjoy many echoes of the gifts Reagan/Thatcher left for humanity.

[Wineslob]

Here I thought they HATED Reagan........................they just upped the foulness of the DUmp.


Utterly despise-able cretins.

There are people who are celebrating her passing.

Galloway's Tweet, shameful cheers at student conference and street parties: Left's sickening 'celebration' breaks out just minutes after Baroness Thatcher's death
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2305760/Margaret-Thatcher-dead-George-Galloway-leads-chorus-celebration-left.html#ixzz2Pu1KYmbC

Champagne was flowing tonight as the Left took to the streets to celebrate the death of former Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

More than 300 people gathered in Glasgow city centre, while over 100 revellers amassed on the streets of Brixton, south London.

Within hours of her death, people had taken to micro blogging sites to organise the gatherings.

 

[jukin]

More proof that whatever the leftists falsely accuse decent and civil people of doing they have already done.

[Rebel]

Some of those ****tard moonbats aren't even old enough to know what the hell they're celebrating. 

Die, you scumbag pricks. Stupid ****ing Communist bastards.
