Message For Sherrill And NJ From Thatcher

Be very wary of high taxes. Any government that has high taxation is giving itself more powers and the people less.pic.twitter.com/OA4YF8VKxW

24 People We Wish We Could Bring Back In '24

The 24 people we're about to list, in no particular order, are all gone. 

Some left us recently, others left us many years ago. All were here in the 20th or 21st century, chosen for this list because many might actually remember them and think of them fondly.

All were unique. They brought distinct and immeasurable talent and insight to our world. They inspired us; they led us; they challenged us; they informed us; they lightened our burden and helped us face each day. Some of them left us much too soon. Others lived well into their eighties and even nineties.  Regardless, we wish they were all with us right now because our need for them has never been greater. Here they are:

Harry S Truman - A President who actually made clear, definitive, irrevocable decisions -- mostly the right decisions and mostly for the right reasons. Imagine that! 

Stephen Sondheim - The great master of the Broadway musical who also gave us a few brilliant standards like Send In The Clouds. A rare genius who left us a monumental body of work.

John Lennon and George Harrison - What if they had lived long enough for the Beatles to get back together again some day? The illusive dream . . . 

Ronald Reagan - Ronaldus Maxus — the one and only. The last great President of the 20th century. He towers above the rest.

Joan Rivers - So original, so groundbreaking, so funny, so irreverent. We could use those laughs now.

JFK and JFK, Jr. - What would have happened if either one of them had not died so tragically? So much promise! The great mystery endures.

Antonin Scalia - One of the greatest legal minds ever and a man who knew how to live life. Just to read one more opinion from him would be a joy!

Margaret Thatcher - The Iron Lady who was a grocer’s daughter raised with invincible common sense. “The lady is not for turning!”

Mother Teresa - A champion of the downtrodden, the oppressed and all human life. She urged us on to a higher calling.

Pope John Paul II - The great Protector of the Faith. He never, ever said “Who am I to judge?” He was The Pope for all ages.

Mother Angelica - The logical successor to Bishop Sheen, she made the Magisterium of the Church an understandable guide to living for everyday Christians. 

Frank, Sammy and Dean - Were there ever three greater entertainers? Song, dance, stage, TV, movies — they did it all, and always with unmistakable panache.

Alfred Hitchcock and Françoise Truffaut - Two of the greatest movie directors ever, together here because they so admired each other. Their talent and insight are sorely missed.

Louis Armstrong - Nobody has ever even come close. The distinct sound of the irrepressible Satchmo defined an era! Thank goodness his recordings are still available and his legacy flourishes.

Fred Rodgers - Did anybody ever understand children better or love them more? Kids could benefit from his presence now more than ever.

Walter Cronkite - Oh, to have a trustworthy, experienced, objective reporter again. A professional with true gravitas.

Patsy Cline and Hank Williams - Gone way too soon — and with so much unique talent, and uniquely American. Positively irreplaceable! 

George Carlin - His routines seem more pertinent and applicable today than ever. Way ahead of his time, he's still got us laughing.

Walt Disney (pictured) - What would this guy think if he came back and saw his company today? Doubtless, he'd be horrified. But he'd also set about restoring it to its original purpose. C'mon back, Walt -- we need you now!

Frederico Fellini - One of the most compellingly visual screen artists ever. His unique celebration of life gave rise to the term Felliniesque!

Queen Elizabeth - Through many storms (both personal and collective) her faith and her sense of duty and obligation never wavered. Epic!

Johnny Carson - Always the right touch, the right balance — he ended our days with devilish, nonpartisan humor, taking shots at everyone.

Golda Meir - Yes, Israel could really use her right now. If fact, the whole damned world could use her!

Audrey Hepburn - Fashion is faddish and transitory. Style is forever. She knew the difference. She had style! Plus, she was a true humanitarian. 

The Words We Need To Hear RIGHT NOW!

“Freedom will destroy itself if it is not exercised within some sort of moral framework, some body of shared beliefs, some spiritual heritage transmitted through the Church, the family, and the school.” -Margaret Thatcher

 

We Sure Could Use Them Right Now!

 

Remember When Hillary Chatted With Eleanor Roosevelt?

CONFUSION: Biden says 'Margaret Thatcher' called him with concerns about Trump... Biden also called President Trump a "clown" and an SOB while saying he didn't want to play the "nickname" game. This all happened while Biden campaigns in South Carolina. 😮

As Always . . . The Lady Knew All Along!

Yeah, She Was Always Ahead Of Her Time!

WARNING: This Might Really, Really Shock You!

Turns Out She Was Right, Right, Right All Along!

Decades ago, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher nailed it when it came to the European Union. "No, No, No!" she declared. And she was right, right, right!

On Nights Like This, Wish They Were Here

In the midst of this horror, we miss them more than ever.
Boy, could we use their moral compass, their resolve, their strength, their determination right now!

Is The Pope Propping Up A Teetering Dictator?

Here is a special message from the Independence Hall Foundation:

For over a year, members of the Obama Administration and Vatican Officials met in secret to arrange for an exchange of political prisoners between the United States and Cuba while hoping to foster the normalization of relations between the two countries whose diplomatic ties were broken more than half a century ago.

Not even Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ), an American of Cuban descent and outgoing
Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, was aware of the ongoing negotiations. 

We cannot express, in words, our profound dismay at the behavior of all parties in this betrayal of American Policy dating back to January, 1961, and the final days of the Eisenhower Administration.  Every President since Eisenhower has shunned the brutal, murderous dictatorship of Communist Fidel Castro.

If Pope Francis thinks his role in restoring relations between Cuba and the United States will result in the downfall of a Communist regime in the way that Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, and Pope John Paul II toppled the Soviet Union, he is pathetically mistaken. Pope Francis is propping up a teetering dictatorship on the verge of collapse. 

Despite Cuban relations with Canada and other western nations, Castro's reign of terror has never permitted a loosening of its economic and political control over the Cuban people. 

Though President Nixon's detente with China may have brought about a softening of Marxist economic policies on the mainland--it also tightened the grip of the Communist dictatorship that still rules the most populated nation on earth. 

And China is no more an ally of the United States, today, than it was during the Nixon era.
In fact, China is, potentially, our leading adversary.

Margaret Thatcher refuses to jump (like everybody else) in TV interview. In all ways -- and always -- she was her own woman and she was one-of-a-kind.

What Thatcher's Granddaughter Said At Funeral

Here's the reading that Margaret Thatcher's granddaughter presented at the Iron Lady's funeral:

Ephesians 6:10-18

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

Pope: 'Christian Values' Underpinned Thatcher's Service

Yesterday, Cardinal Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone, S.D.B., sent a telegram on behalf of the Holy Father to Mr. David Cameron, prime minister of the United Kingdom, on the death yesterday at 87 years of age of the Baroness Margaret Thatcher who governed the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990.

“His Holiness Pope Francis” reads the telegram, “was saddened to learn of the death of Baroness Margaret Thatcher. He recalls with appreciation the Christian values which underpinned her commitment to public service and to the promotion of freedom among the family of nations. Entrusting her soul to the mercy of God, and assuring her family and the British people of a remembrance in his prayers, the Holy Father invokes upon all whose lives she touched God’s abundant blessings.”

Video: Thatcher's Famous 'Iron Lady' Speech

Margaret Thatcher's famous Iron Lady speech. Thatcher speaks briefly on her view of the Russian military buildup.

"I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left."

Video - Thatcher As Our Guide And Inspiration

Like President Ronald Reagan, her political soulmate, Margaret Thatcher came to power at a desperate time in her country's history, when real leadership and bold ideas were most needed. And by applying conservative principles to the challenges she faced, she was able to achieve real and lasting success. Then, as today, she faced an extraordinary set of challenges and a chorus of voices saying her country's best days were behind it. Thatcher's successes are a comforting reminder of the power of a bold, conservative vision at work.
