For as long as I live, I will NEVER understand politicians' penchant for sucking up to one another, whether living or dead. LBJ ranks barely above Clinton on the worst presidents of our time list. Carter, Clinton, LBJ . . . . .
Not worse than Carter or Clinton, but a VERY close 3rd in my book. Still (asbestos undies on!) he was behind he assasination of JFK and, when that fact is finally revealed, Bush will end up looking like a complete and total fool!!
What are we being screwn out of this time?
: )
LBJ wanted to be known as the education president? Of course the irony is lost on these fools that there should never be such thing as an "education president" since it is not the role of the fed. govt. to have anything to do with education....
LBJ & "Box 13" ...

Hell, Clinton was positively anti-social compared to how much Bush "wants to be liked by everyone". And sorry to say, too oblivious to know that whatever he does, they WILL NOT LIKE HIM.
Lyndon Johnson destroyed the public schools.
"I wish the President would stop referring to himself as a Texan. He absolutely is not. He's a d#mn Yankee!"
What you said! You go Girl!!
I have voted for Bush eight times.
(Voted in the Pub primaries;^)
similar, war-losing, presidencies.
You are so right!
How about the oath he took to protect this nation from invasion?
In fact, it looks to me like Bush has modeled his whole life after LBJ.
Thanks LBJ...for a 70% out -of-wedlock bithrate for blacks! Hooray!!!
The law that muzzles the political speech of non-profit organizations (read churches) was the handiwork of LBJ. When Johnson ran for office (not sure if it was the House or Senate) there was some Baptist preachers in Texas who warned their congregations about the man's lack of character. LBJ was so incensed that when he did win, he sought to silence preachers.
If you're going to start Bush-bashing, kindly do it for something that actually matters.
Some people slam the guy every chance they get.
Even so, the man served this country for over 30 years.
Far greater honors have been bestowed on former Presidents. Let that be a testament to LBJ's place in history.
The same is true in the other direction as well. Former Presidents have rarely criticized their successors.
