The Iron Lady

Apparently because Meryl Streep does another of her wondrous chameleon-like performances (yawn), this time of Margaret Thatcher, we're supposed to flock to see "The Iron Lady" and ignore the fact that in cahoots with her American counterpart, Ronald Reagan, Thatcher made life demonstrably worse for the vast majority of poor, working class, and middle class citizens of the world.

Thanks but no fucking thanks.

Is the film industry so hard up that they couldn't come up with a better script than one which will be used to deify another leader who is a blot on all that is good in this world?  Not to mention that, other than being a woman, her story is as bland as rice pudding.  But let's not forget that Thatcher won the Falklands war--which has all the gravitas of me leading a Pee Wee football team to its league championship as its star quarterback.

Can't wait for all the film clips on Oscar night...gag.

Iron Lady?  Cutthroat Charlatan would be more to the truth.

Peace,
