RIP Ladybird
 

How in God's name did you put up with your husband?
Heaven has a place for you.

I always hated that photo where he was holding his beagles by the ears and dangling them. :mad:

civil rights act of 1964.

voting rights act of 1965.

nominated thurgood marshall to supreme court.

"We have lost the South for a generation," anticipating a coming backlash from Southern whites against Johnson's Democratic Party. (after signing the civil rights act of 1964)

what a horrible horrible man.

Ladybird did her best to keep America beautiful. RIP.

She had to live with him, not sign bills with him.

His great society was a noble effort. Unfortunately a little problem in Vietnam got in the way. Do you want to go into that?

i'm more interested in what you think made him so hard to live with. i wasn't aware there was marital discord.

what did you mean by your original post?

From everything I have ever read about her, she's the classiest first lady to ever grace The White House.

i always understood that he was a tremendous a-hole. maybe that's what he meant.

I respected him more than most, he remained true to Kennedy's philosophy despite his southern upbringing...his tapes with Billy Graham were unfortunate but he was a plain-spoken man...I can live with that, sorta like Truman in some ways. I don't blame LBJ for Nam...I blame the political process!

Tremendous is being very nice. Farting, cussing, spitting... having discussions on the toilet while he was going #2... what a patient woman she must have been. They have some very thick books about him. He may have been one of the crudest presidents of all time.

But then again, he never got his hose sucked by another woman in the white house...

I thought she died 20 years ago

She did - the media just picked up on it, though...... :)

no. no.

if you do them your spouse goes to heaven.

it's tricky but my interpretation of this particular gospel is that you should do this stuff.

He was known to have multiple mistresses...that could make for marital discored...I mean, only if you consider infidelity marital discord...

Then there was the whole Vietnam thing he pushed for...

How about those conspirasy lunatics that believe he ordered the hit on JFK?

Personally, in 100 years, he will be labled a horrible president...IMO...

That might not be true according to some accounts...

My case has been made God.

Will you let Ladybird into heaven your highness?

if there is a heaven I'm sure she's there!

Your interpretation? You made the frikkin rules.
