Well, aye actually, to a certain extent I do. More so with Thatcher, though, because - as I've already said - she had a strong brain. And now it's mush. It's the nature of the disease and the personality involved that make it a bit more of a "fuck, this happens to EVERYONE" kind of thing than hearing about the 90 year old woman two doors down who never leaves the house or talks to anyone except her dogs going off her chump.

Plus, FOR FUCK SAKE, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THE COOKIES THING.
NEVER MIND.

Re: Thatcher has Dementia

Even if gloating wasn't weird and a little bit twisted, which it is, what is there to gloat about anyway? Woman lives natural lifespan and succumbs to old age? Looks like she's won to me.

Think on that.
Yeah that's going to make me care any less about her family having to go through this. To be honest, I don't know the lady or her family so I can't say I really care in the slightest but I do know someone going through this right now and seeing how it affected them I wouldn't wish this on ANYONE.

Has she got any friends left? I'd thought Augusto Pinochet was the last one.

Y'know what, shut the fuck up for a second.

Not one person in this thread has been lauging at her or her familys pain, yet you're happy to look down on all the potential gloating that you can hear and read in your head while trying to talk up the positive aspects of the Thatcher administration.

While the majority of the people in this thread have expressed sympathy and understanding, your low opinion of the users on your own site prejudices you to a frankly illogical degree.

You're going to have to stop judging people for things they haven't done yet.

In the end though you might not like her but you should think about all the other people this will affect, her family and friends, dementias not a nice thing to watch no matter who it happens to, so before you start all the "fuck her" comments have a wee think.
Ach, we see things completely differently if you are playing what she did down like that.
Slight sympathies for some of her family.
No sympathy for her, from me, I'm afraid.

As Mark says, it's a total lolfest that I should have sympathy for this old boot, when infact, she couldn't have cared less about my family or the old and infirm when she was in power.
Her "impact" in this country was fucking dreadful.

There's a catalogue of bullshit she has done that I'm not going to sit and rifle through piece by piece with a thatcher sympathiser. The woman was a borderline racist to boot, and she can rot in hell as far as I'm concerned.
Nothing more than a fascist old cow, and she can answer for her sins when she meets the big man upstairs.

Never forget.

Re: Thatcher has Dementia

I wouldn't wish dementia on anyone.

She should see out her remaining years in jail though, or wherever we put war criminals these days.

couldn't agree more


how anyone could have any sort of sympathy for this old cow is beyond me, I for one would like to see her live a good 20 years or so, I don't want her to die until she's sufferd the indignity of being caught on camera walking down downing street covered in her own pish and shit still thinking she's the PM

the things that woman has done this country and others (Ireland and Argentina for a start) shall never be forgotten, yes its a shame her family has to watch there mother/aunt/whet ever go through this, however for the rest of us whos families suffered under the cow, its a total fucking dream come true


ha fucking ha mad maggie

Yup your right on re-reading it no one seems to be laughing, so I apologise for that. I'm guess I'm just used to the people wanting her dead on here, still seems like did have a bit of foresight, crazydiamond seems to be quite happy about it.

As I said I don't expect any sympathy for her, and as for being a sympathiser thats not quite the case I just don't have what seems like an "all thatcher did while in power was fuck the country and everyone in it" as for her personal views on homosexuality etc I find them utter dispicable.
