I remember when the despicable Lyndon Johnson refused to attend Churchill's funeral thus proving me wrong as I'd thought it impossible my opinion of LBJ had any further room to sink.

That's all right, dear old Winston wouldn't have wanted LBJ there anyway. Compare and contrast Winston's approach to war, to Johnson's "police action" in Vietnam.
