The Marriage of Maggie & Ronnie Victor Sasson

The Marriage of Maggie and Ronnie is a comedy about two Conservative leaders. One was called 'Great Communicator', the other, 'Iron Lady'. While the world viewed these two ruthless politicians with admiration, the author despised them for their callous economic policies, foolish political pronouncements, and reckless military adventures. The myth about Ronald Reagan has not died. Conservatives and Republicans still credit him with the bringing down of the Soviet Union - a godless and cruel empire that was, in fact, already rotten to the core and destined to collapse. The truth about the 'Iron Lady' eventually dawned on her own people, and she was justly removed from her high political position. Margaret Thatcher was responsible for the death of thousands of soldiers in the war with Argentina about the Falkland Islands - semi-barren tiny islands in the Southern Hemisphere. A headstrong, demented dictator of sorts, the lady indeed, was 'not for turning'. In this comedy, the two leaders - great admirers of each other in real life - are brought together in mock sacred matrimony, fittingly with the assistance of the CIA and the British Intelligence Service. Having first spied on each other to ascertain neither of them is tainted with Communism or Socialism, nor with democratic doctrines and values, they ultimately find their happiness in each other's bosom. The Marriage of Maggie and Ronnie is a political comedy about two ruthless, but popular propagandists, who cared little about the welfare of their own citizens or the world at large.
