Sarah Palin snub by Margaret Thatcher aides infuriates US rightwing

  • A firestorm on the US right has erupted after the Guardian reported that Sarah Palin will be denied a meeting with Lady Thatcher on the grounds that it would be "belittling" for her to meet the darling of the Tea Party movement.

    Rush Limbaugh, the conservative radio host, devoted the opening section of his radio show to denouncing the "preposterous" Guardian report, as Palin supporters accused Thatcher's circle of disgracing the former prime minister.

    The US conservative right reacted furiously after the Guardian reported that Thatcher's aides had decided it would be inappropriate for her to meet Palin, who is planning to visit London next month en route to Sudan. Palin has been touring US historical sites (an excursion that saw her slip up this week on the subject of Paul Revere, the American patriot who made a famous "midnight ride" to warn of approaching British forces).

    One Thatcher ally told the Guardian: "Lady Thatcher will not be seeing Sarah Palin. That would be belittling for Margaret. Sarah Palin is nuts."

    The former prime minister's friends say she will show the level she punches at when she marks the centenary of the birth of Ronald Reagan by attending the unveiling of a statue of the late president outside the US embassy in Grosvenor Square on independence day, 4 July. The Thatcher ally added: "Margaret is focusing on Ronald Reagan and will attend the unveiling of the statue. That is her level."

    The response from the US right was swift. Limbaugh opened his show on Wednesday with a lengthy denunciation of the Guardian after the New York Daily News and a host of US publications picked up on the comments.

    "There's a story out there today, and it's an illustration of how things happen, how things are said and reported," Limbaugh told his listeners. "This is preposterous, and I have personal knowledge of this."

    Limbaugh said he knew Thatcher well and embarked on a lengthy description of how he had driven her round a Florida golf course on a golf cart. "I have been with her in social and professional settings as well. It's obvious that her health is not today what it was, but back in the day, Margaret Thatcher would in no way allow an aide to refer to anybody, Sarah Palin notwithstanding, as 'nuts'."

    La Donna Hale Curzon, the host of Sarah Palin Radio, accused the Thatcher circle of disgracing the former prime minister. "Margaret Thatcher would never call a fellow Conservative, let alone Gov Palin 'nuts'," Hale Curzon tweeted. "Thatcher's handlers have disgraced the Iron Lady."

    The ally who criticised Palin said the Thatcher circle would not change their minds despite the backlash. "Margaret will not be meeting Sarah Palin. If necessary we will make sure that Margaret has an off day when Palin is in London."

    Critics of Palin revelled in the backlash against Thatcher's circle, whose dismissive views of Palin undermine her claim that she is the victim of a witch-hunt by left-leaning mainstream media. Palin regards Thatcher as one of her heroines.

    Andrew Sullivan, of The Dish blog, which chronicles Palin's weaknesses, wrote : "As usual, the tired old bigoted comedian Rush Limbaugh took offence that anyone could call Sarah Palin 'nuts,' even though she is quite obviously a few sandwiches short of a picnic, and her grip on reality is, shall we say, tenuous. And as usual, Limbaugh blamed it on the left, ie the Guardian's Wintour/Watt blog.

    "What he doesn't understand is that Palin's nutsiness is not a partisan matter in Britain, or anywhere else in the world. It is an obvious truth marveled at by all. Palin's emergence as a serious figure in American politics has made the country a laughing stock across the world. The idea that a stateswoman like Thatcher, in advanced dementia, would be used by such a crackpot is simply unseemly."


\:lol\: Go Thatcher! Remind those Extremist freaks what true Conservatives like Ronald Reagan stand for. Palin is becoming the Bin Laden of the Tea Party: The head nutjob that fools the ignorant and weak-willed into servitude. \:lol\:

Also, I love how Rush attempts a side-step between his rock (patriotic to the Reagan Era and, thus, Thatcher's support by fellow Reagan-followers) and hard-place (being forced to criticize because someone spoke out honestly about Fraulein Palin). Guess that's why they pay him the big bucks... ;\)

Honestly, I'd probably tap Palin once just to say I did. Other than that, her only real uses are as a fundraising apparatus for the crazies and as a butt for jokes by everyone else.

Oh, never once did I say I wouldn't fuck her. But, then, that's all she seems useful for, anyway. With a voice like that, who wouldn't want a cock in her throat as much as possible?

I Googled that name, to find out who you were talking about. For some reason, I always thought that guy was a commentator for CNN.

Anyway, I don't keep up with back-and-forth stuff much. What's Cain done or the Left done for them to tie up? I'm asking honestly, because I don't get your reference...

Cain is a black republican. That means all liberal hive minders must hate him. He's also the most sane person running is 2012.

I refuse to click on any video that involves Jon Stewart. But Since it has apparently turned JLA into an irrational wreck, then I'm sure it's gold despite Stewart's involvement.

I never claimed that Thatcher did snub her, so you have nothing to be sorry for.

Except for being a shill boy, but we've went over that in the past.

It's also nice to know that he was the first person in the history of the Internets to use a "variation" () of the word "retard".

Ironically enough it's identical to whomod's tard list, except JLA put BSAMS where he himself used to be.

Wonder Boy is my bud. He's the most extreme one here, but at least he's genuine, and doesn't parrot the Republican line like you and the other shills do out of boredom, trolling, or a sense of obligation.

You're batting .000 again G-shill. Even if by some miracle you managed to get something correct, you would still be far off from approaching the Mendoza line.

Pariah sees you as a kindred spirit, I see.

Similar to how you feel obligated to throw a tantrum at anyone who doesn't fall into line with unions.
