That part?
No, I didn't miss it.
I gave it all the respect it deserved.
I see what your problem is.
You think that LBJ is the "bully" in those photos.
You are wrong.
Those are photos of LBJ Standing UP to the bullies who worked for the RICH,
who didn't think your grandmother should be able to go to the doctor when she was sick,
and who didn't think that minorities should have Equal Rights,
and who didn't think that those American with dirt under their fingernails deserved a break.
THAT is who LBJ Stood Up against.
Thank You, LBJ.
My mother and grandmother appreciate your courage.
President Obama thanks you too,
because without your courage and leadership in standing up to the REAL
"Bullies", even those in your own Party,
HE would NOT be President Obama today!
You think this is some kind of game. It is not.
This is WAR... Life or Death,
and no points are awarded for Playing Nice.
QED: 2008 -2013
If a "bully" is standing between you and your wife getting into the Hospital for an emergency, are you going to play nice?
If so, better not let your wife read this thread.
I will continue to fight for what is right,
and top protect those I love.
Of course, you can continue to do whatever it is you are doing.
No. I didn't miss anything.
I was THERE!
