BS: Christmas

22 Dec 11 - 01:56 AM (#3278177)
Subject: BS: Christmas Poem / Wish
From: Silas

Just tell me what you would say
If Thatcher died on Christmas Day
And helped us with our Christmas cheer
Bringing peace for those that lived in fear
Of evil politics and greed
... And ignorance of those in need

Oh go on Maggie, do it, do it now
Yes, do it now you nasty cow
Let us rejoice the witch is dead
And we sleep soundly in our beds
Never again the like we'll see
A Thatcher's Britain no more for me.

Bit nasty me thinks. May you also enjoy your Christmas Silas.

I am not a Thatcher fan, by the way. Just don't like what you have posted.

A lot of people die at Christmas time. it saddens me. I would rather wish good health and cheer to those I care for than death to those I despise.

I don't normally agree with censorship of members posts. In this case I would be prepared to make an exception.

There again;
Let it stand. It is an object lesson which can be linked to whenever Silas's motives for posting are in question.

Wishing the death of another at Christmas? (when even the guns fell silent). Herod would be proud of you!

I really don't see your problem with this, particularly after the way some mudcatters were rejocing the deaths of Saddam Hussein, Bin Laden, Ghaddafi etc.

Well said Silas. Apart from the fact that she would need to suffer much longer to equal the total of the suffering that she caused in and for others. I don't normally approve of vengeance for its own sake, but for her I'll make an exception.

Unfortunately we are headed pell mell for a Britain as bad as that evil bitch's or worse.

You don't see any difference between a current dictator and an elerly woman more than 20 years out of office?

The 'elderly woman's ' legacy is still being felt even now. I make absoloutly no apologies for this poem, you can take it or leave it, that is your choice, but I will say this; the vitriol that has been expressed about it up to now is but a fraction of the collective hatred that this woman has caused through her years in power.

She is not worth a thousand Cristina Fernández de Kirchners - and that is really saying something!

Is there a statute of limitations on tyranny, Jack? What is your view of the IRA's killing of Mountbatten?

Kirchner seems to have many merits. She is a notable advocate for human rights, poverty awareness and health improvement - the exact opposite of Thatcher.

I am however concerned at the current efforts by latin-american countries, led by Argentina, to mount a partial blockade of the Falklands. In that context let me say that Thatcher, while saving the Falklands from annexation, pretty well talked it up into an undeclared war (apparently to seek electoral advantage) and that the sinking of the Belgrano while it was outside the "exclusion zone", sailing away from the Falklands and while we were not at war, looks a lot more like murder than propriety.
