She was a marvelous nature lover. She had the grace to appreciate God's beautiful world. The country has lost a great woman. I hope we keep her memory alive for future generations. Love that photo of her with her husband in the field of wildflowers. Precious, indeed.

After tomorrow those goddamn Kennedys will never embarrass me again—that's no threat—that's a promise."

That's what Johnson said one day before JFK was slaughtered.

Lady Bird was a great person to have put up with that womanizeing Lyndon. Folks , the books are out there, pick them up and read. LBJ was a crook and CIA murderer of the highest kind. This poor woman put up with this crap for decades, she was truly a saint .Like most of the other women of that time period. They were all treated like 2nd class citizens.
