And yet, while MGB® hopes to visit the Iron Lady--who is suffering from Alzheimer's--when she travels to the Sudan--apparently there is a huuuge Teabagger constituency in the Sudan--there is some thought that she'll be turned away.
The MGB® told Christina Lamb, of 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."
And yet, according to Andy McSmith, of the Independent, it seems Thatcher has no intention of meeting the Teabbgin' cutie. While McSmith does report that the eighty-six-year-old Thatcher rarely makes public appearances, the reasons for not meeting the MGB® go deeper. Thatcher allies believe that MGB® is a frivolous figure who is unworthy of an audience with the Iron Lady, and have said: "Lady Thatcher will not be seeing [MGB®]. That would be belittling for Margaret. [MGB®] is nuts."
Uh huh.
Suh-nap!
Incongruous at best!

ReplyDeleteI love the moniker MGB®! Priceless is grizzly bore!
ReplyDeleteMGB® in Sudan? She probably thinks Sudan is a 4 door car and she's getting a free one!
Like some, I doubt the veracity of the claims that this was said by Thatcher's aides. Of course, we know that they really do think that Scarah is nuts, but I think they probably wouldn't say anything quite that bluntly.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I think the larger problem here is that Scarah feels she has some sort of right to see the ailing Thatcher, who apparently is NOT in good shape. Leave her in peace, you publicity whore, and allow her family to attend to her. I have no fondness for Thatcher, but Scarah's desire to use her for publicity and a photo op is ghoulish at best. Not that that surprises me!
Perhaps she just want's to exchange tips on merkins?....
