Nixon Library Opens a Door Some Would Prefer Left Closed

I'm not saying Lyndon Johnson was a great man. I did have serious qualms about some aspects of his political actions. Some persons have called him an "ass" and worse. He may have been. But, ultimately, he owned to who he was and what he did. I might not like someone or their actions, but I do respect those who will own up and accept their fate. A person may be an s.o.b, but if he owns up to it, you know where you stand and you can proceed from a position of respect for their honesty. In conrast to Nixon, the facts speak for themselves.
