LBJ as a ##**&&##@##!

[PapaNew]

The slow decline of America since LBJ launched the Great Society Turncoat Teddy Roosevelt helped get us the income tax beginning Progressive Socialism in earnest in the federal government.

Take that! you Post readers. LOL!

Fifty years ago this Thursday, at the University of Michigan, Johnson had proposed legislating into existence a Great Society. It would end poverty and racial injustice, “but that is just the beginning.” It would “rebuild the entire urban United States” while fending off “boredom and restlessness,” slaking “the hunger for community” and enhancing “the meaning of our lives” — all by assembling “the best thought and the broadest knowledge.”

Wow! I thought I had ambitious ideas…

The 1965 Immigration Act is far more destructive in the long term than the Great Society.

...It (The Great Society legislation) would “rebuild the entire urban United States” while fending off “boredom and restlessness,” slaking “the hunger for community” and enhancing “the meaning of our lives” — all by assembling “the best thought and the broadest knowledge.”

Worked, too, didn't it?

LBJ was the second biggest turd (Jimmah Cottah and that Clinton asshole are tied for first) that the dimorat party ever foisted on the United States of America.

LBJ, you sucked.

But then, everybody knows that.

A government check is a shiv in the soul.

They have been advertising a documentary on the 60s that’s coming on soon.(I forget the channel)

I wouldn’t watch it it they paid me——I remember the time too well. It was like watching the country I loved disappear.

But America’s decline has rapidly accelerated under Obozo.

On the day that LBJ promised to “rebuild the entire urban United States”,Detroit was one of the wealthiest cities on earth.Twenty trillion dollars in wealth redistribution later "wealthy" is one word that few would use to describe the city.

Johnson sounded like a complete psycho, from what I’ve read.

An explanation for liberalism:

“The instinct of submission, an ardent desire to obey and be ruled by some strong man, is at least as prominent in human psychology as the will-to-power, and politically perhaps more relevant.”

"I'll have those n*ggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years."

-- Lyndon B. Johnson to two governors on Air Force One according Ronald Kessler's Book, "Inside The White House"

[Chode]

well, we're 50 years into his 200 year prediction, but the problem is, America prolly won't be recognizable 150 years from now, if it even still exists that is...

The following quotes are from Ronald Kessler’s “Inside The White House”

“I’ll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.” —Lyndon B. Johnson to two governors on Air Force One

“These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference.”—LBJ

Don’t forget the War On Poverty.

“The slow decline of America since LBJ launched the Great Society”

Me thinks it has rapidly picked up speed since Jan, 2009.
