Thank you for the back up. I'm reminded of the line from Shakespere, "Cry Havoc and let loose the dogs of war".
I'm sure you had this in mind when you chose your post name.

[Havoc]

No problem. And my handle was given to me. I used to run a BBS system years ago and was having trouble both naming the board and picking a handle. After naming the board, "the Thieves Guild", a buddy thought 'Guildmaster Havoc' sounded pretty cool and it stuck. I had a prior handle for when I visited other boards. But I haven't used that in about 8 years now. ;)

Your quotation gives me a perfect entry for my post, which is slightly off center:

"Cry Havoc and let loose the dogs of war"

My question is: Why now?

Is there some political gain to be had by plastering LBJ now? Clearly, the media is beginning to harp on this subject almost to the same degree that they mindlessly repeat unsubstantiated claims against George Bush.

In fact, this makes me wonder if there is some connection between George Bush or his father and LBJ, since they are all Texan?

Another possibility is that there is someone of power within the Democrat party who can be implicated and who would otherwise stand in the way of a Hillary run in 2004.

I wonder if there isn't something going on to cause this issue to surface NOW. Knowing that the official documents are still sealed, it would make perfect fodder for inuendo if a tenuous charge could be leveled. The "named party" would not be even to defend themselves with all the evidence under seal. This has all the earmarks of a setup for a media feeding frenzy.

Come on guys! Let's put on our tin foil hats and prognosticate away!
