But LBJ was a pol and a thug in his own category..

Whatever he was, he was a go along, get along guy that squashed JFK's war on the CIA. Wouldn't you say?

Until the Deepies got rid of him too. The first newspaper headline I remember seeing in my life, in about third grade I think was, "LBJ Won't Run."

I guess two assassinations in a row might have been a bit much.

Two would be too much?

There were 2 more of questionable realities before we orbited the moon. Why did Lyndon abdicate? Danged good question. Guilt? Pressure? Why did Krushchev (sp?) abdicate in early ‘64?

And why would the PTB choose HHH over Eugene?

Hey. I heard-tell you were the Wizard.
