    I'm no fan of her husband, but may "she" rest in peace.

    A better woman could not be found. She was a queen in her own way and her works will be missed.

    Rest in Peace Ma'am, you have done well in your quest.

    RIP, Lady Bird.

    I was never (and could never be) a political fan of Lyndon Johnson's, but reading history about the Johnson era made me a little more empathetic of his situation and the pressures he was under (particularly in regards Vietnam).

    Indeed.

    The bastard (LBJ) cheated on her left and right.

    Johnson once said that he had more women by accident than JFK ever had on purpose.

    Agreed. May her husband be rotting in hell with a gimpball stuffed in his mouth, for "so many things."

    :lol: And there's a president who hasn't cheated left and right?
    I saw an article a few days ago about cheating presidents.....wow.

    But hey, they are pwereful, charismatic intelligent men. Logic would dictate women go crazy over them.

    Bush I, Bush II, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, Eisenhower, Truman....there is no evidence they ever cheated on their wives.

    FDR didn't while he was president. Neither did Hoover, Coolidge, Teddy Roosevelt, Taft, McKinley as far as anyone can say.
