Maggie Thatcher tells Palin to piss off...because Palin is Bloody Nuts

Ok...I'm paraphrasing but just as good as...:rofl:

Margaret Thatcher to Sarah Palin: don't bother dropping by

Sarah Palin wants to show to the Republican right that she is the true keeper of the Ronald Reagan flame by meeting the late president's closest ally on the world stage.

A meeting with Margaret Thatcher in the centenary year of Reagan's birth would be the perfect way of launching her bid for the Republican nomination for the 2012 US presidential election.

This is what Palin told Christina Lamb in the Sunday Times:

I am going to Sudan in July and hope to stop in England on the way. I am just hoping Mrs Thatcher is well enough to see me as I so admire her.

It appears that the former prime minister has no intention of meeting the darling of the Tea Party movement. Andy McSmith reported in the Independent this morning that Palin is likely to be "thwarted" on the grounds that Thatcher, 86, rarely makes public appearances.

It would appear that the reasons go deeper than Thatcher's frail health. Her allies believe that Palin is a frivolous figure who is unworthy of an audience with the Iron Lady. This is what one ally tells me:

Lady Thatcher will not be seeing Sarah Palin. That would be belittling for Margaret. Sarah Palin is nuts.

Thatcher will show the level she punches at when she attends the unveiling of a statue of Ronald Reagan outside the US embassy in Grosvenor Square on Independence day on 4 July

5. Didn't Thatcher already snub Palin back in 2010?

Sarah Palin plans photo op with Margaret Thatcher


US right-wing idol offered rendezvous - but does she realise Thatcher has dementia?

By David Cairns
LAST UPDATED 10:34 AM, JUNE 15, 2010


Sarah Palin hopes to meet Margaret Thatcher on an upcoming visit to the UK, she has confirmed. Writing on her Facebook page, the former US vice-presidential candidate said she had had the offer of a rendezvous and "would love to meet" the Iron Lady, who is one of her "political heroines".

Palin believes she can only stand to gain from a photo-op with the former PM, who remains the best-known UK politician in the US and still commands immense respect among Republicans, largely, as Palin says herself, because of her close friendship with Ronald Reagan. She describes Reagan as "my other political hero".

<snip>

However, the former PM's daughter, Carol Thatcher, revealed in 2008 that her mother has been suffering from dementia since the year 2000 - to the extent that she now believes herself to be living again in Grantham, where she grew up as a grocer's daughter.

This is unlikely to deter Palin. "I cherish her example and will always count her as one of my role models," she writes

6. I'm sure British MI5 burst out laughing when the request was made...
If it was actually made. I doubt it was.

7. I thought I'd read that Ms. Thatcher had some problems with dementia.
Sounds like she's still sharper than Palin, though.
