children, especially Caroline and her pony, Macaroni.

The truth is out. The leading lady of liberal America between 1960 and her death in 1994, the standard setter of au courant women with her pillbox hats, bouffant hairstyle, and jet-set friends, the Guinevere to Camelot’s King Arthur himself, didn’t much care for lesbians and Martin Luther King and other leftist world leaders.
The tapes of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (shown as a young First Lady, left) are out, as The New American reported, and their first installment weeks ago revealed that she thought Vice President Lyndon Johnson, the most prodigious and successful election thief in American history, had a role in the killing of her husband.
The latest release contain the whisper-voiced First Lady’s thought on everything and everyone, and she even reveals a weird fact about her husband. As London’s Daily Mail rightly put it, “The fact this purring, Chanel-clad kitten had claws shouldn’t have come as a shock....
....Kennedy apparently was very much a woman of her time and didn’t care for relentlessly driven careerists who put work ahead of family. She thought that only “violently liberal women in politics” would vote for JFK’s opponent in the 1960 Democratic primaries, Adlai Stevenson, because they were “scared of sex.”
She also said women don’t belong with politics because “we’re just not suited for it.”
During the Cuban Missile Cuban Crisis, Mrs. Kennedy begged her husband not to send her away in the event of war, so devoted was she to her husband, despite his noted infidelities.
She also reveals that her husband played with toys in the bathtub and said perfunctory nighttime prayers while kneeling by his bed.

. . . . Off Topic.
According to the book Blood, Money and Power, by Barr McClellan, Mrs. Kennedy was correct.
McClellan, from his work as an attorney with an Austin law firm headed by LBJ's lawyer and close confidant, had access to folks who knew LBJ intimately, as well as to revealing documents concerning LBJ's sordid history. He makes a compelling case connecting Johnson to the JFK assassination.
When we lived in NYC in the early 90s, my wife took our kids to the same pediatrician as Caroline Kennedy. She shared the waiting room with her on occasion, and said that she was haughty and aloof, and Caroline’s au pair dealt with her kids.
“...she thought that Vice President Lyndon Johnson...had a role in the killing of her husband.”
Gee Jackie...you think?
Not much got by her...
I’ve said a dozen times here and laid out the reasons but I still don’t believe for a minute LBJ had anything to do with it. He and Lady Bird were best friends with Gov. Connolly and Nellie. There is no way Lady Bird would have allowed him harming one hair on Nellie’s head and that goes for Connolly, too. They bought weekend homes next to each other in Llano county, TX and had parties for many, many year at each other’s house. If you were the Connolly’s, would you let your kids and grandkids sit down at the same table with someone who nearly killed you? I don’t think so.
We were old family friends with his pilot and they wouldn’t have lived on the ranch in Stonewall, TX or continued to work for him after he left office if they thought for one second he’d done that.
According to Time and Life the Bouviers were Republican, and Jacqueline's stepfather's family, the Auchinclosses certainly were.
Jackie's views of FDR reflect this, though come to think of it, Old Joe Kennedy and Gore Vidal's grandfather (Jackie's relative by marriage and divorce) were both Democrats and both came to hate FDR.
But yes, Jackie wasn't the smartest tool in the shed.
Fun fact: John Kerry dated Jackie's half-sister when he was in high school. Even then, he was a gigolo.
Thank you for finding the nice photo. I don’t know where they boarded the pony, and I watched a flurry of videos, but I thought I saw the pony on the White House grounds with the family.
Thanks for the ping!
I’m not much for conspiracy theories but that was always one of my favorites.
There’s no question, to me at least, that LBJ was involved at some level.
Since Kennedy, himself, O.K.'d political assassinations, there is certainly a distinct possibility that there was some involvement. But, of course, we may never know for sure. But it was a very amoral time in the higher level of "Liberal" American politics. (I am not going to suggest that the present times are any more moral.)

Kennedy insisted that he ride with Connally instead; that is was proper for the two chief executives ride with each other. So Yarborough switched places with Connally and rode with LBJ instead. It was a last-minute switch made by JFK; it was out of LBJ's hands.
Wasn’t it “Landslide Lyndon” who said: “Ask not what you can do for your country; ask what you can do for me?”
Question - would you let your grandkids sit down at the table with a murderer? No. Neither would these people.
Who are you even talking about? Your pilot friend? Eating with who? LBJ? John "They're gonna kill us all" Connally?
