Villanova professor's quest reveals LBJ vendetta against George Hamilton
Philadelphia Inquirer ^ | August 31, 2014 | Jeremy Roebuck, Alison Steele

Posted on 09/01/2014 1:29:26 AM PDT by gusopol3

For a few months in 1966, the budding romance between film star George Hamilton and Lynda Bird Johnson, daughter of the 36th president, was the talk of Washington....But a previously confidential FBI file - which a Philadelphia judge last week outlined in an opinion and ordered to be released - shows for the first time how far Johnson went to protect his daughter and his presidency

If LBJ (or JFK) had been alive, Nixon never would have been impeached; they would have had to cover up too many of Johnson's crimes. For people who think the media used to play it straight, never in 50 years. Even now, these writers are "shocked,shocked" by the FBI and all but give LBJ and Fortas a pass.

I’m sure there haven’t been any other abuses of power by residents of the White House. It was just LBJ. I’m shocked.

One has to wonder is the WH is only now releasing this Info for distraction after the MSM recently published an article on the increasing
non-transparency of the current administration

Squirrel!

I believe he did too.
In TX he was ruthless. He had a lot of people killed.
He wanted the Presidency so bad. . . . . He hated the Kennedy's with their high fluting ways when they were nothing more than bootleggers. . .
LBJ was one sorry A$$ scum. We are still feeling the effects of some of his poverty programs.

For the title of Most Corrupt and Worst Abuse Of Power, the Obama administration has only one challenger -- the LBJ administration.

The famously corrupt Clinton administration finishes a pallid third.

Bobby Kennedy fed all the dirt to TIME and LIFE, which were going to publish it all on December 1, 1963. Johnson was one week away from total disgrace, indictment, and prison, when he had Kennedy murdered.

Stone has a photo of Bobby and LBJ in the Rose Garden. Johnson’s mouth is hanging open. The White House photographer swore that Bobby had just said: “Why did you murder my brother?”

The Carter White House was also a cesspool.

Jackie asked French intelligence to find out the truth. They wrote a full report, concluding LBJ did it. It was published in France and England, but not the U.S. The title is something like Wake Up, America! I check on Amazon. It goes for hundreds of dollars. Jackie and Bobby both knew. But Hoover (who was in on the assassination) had so much dirt on the two of them that they didn't dare go public. If they HAD held a press conference accusing LBJ, the entire country would have believed them.

Yep - LBJ was a real piece of work and I’ve long thought that he was behind JFK’s assassination. Until Obama came along, he was the epitome of a Democrat’s Democrat.

"The file can be read as an effort by the FBI to uncover embarrassing details about a private citizen as a personal favor to the president."

So LBJ uses the FBI to pursue one of his daughter's suitors. Whereas BHO uses the IRS to attack 50% of the citizens of the US. Which is worse?

This is also about using a sitting Supreme Court Justice to do dirty work.

I think Lee Harvey Oswald only shot John F. Kennedy. He had the means and motive.

Hamilton must have been a little too “tan” for LBJ’s tastes.

Lee Harvey Oswald, He was a Castro sympathizer, wanna-be Communist. He wanted to change history.

LBJ’s a piker compared to the Clintons.

The difference is LBJ is dead and the people, including the MSM, that were protecting him are pretty much dead and gone.

Nobody left to protect him.

With the Clintons, both are still alive and the people and MSM that were protecting them are still alive and still protecting them.

With the Clintons, people including yourself, simply refuse to accept the level of corruption that’s possible from someone that has been elected president twice.
