(Language warning!)
Lyndon Johnson was a civil rights hero. But also a racist.
Quooter I would give the honor of worst war president to Bush Jr. he sure F!cked it up and you and TRT backed him all the way to the end. Mission Accomplished

"On June 10, a coalition of 27 Republicans and 44 Democrats ended the filibuster when the Senate voted 71 to 29 for cloture, thereby limiting further debate. This marked the first time in its history that the Senate voted to end debate on a civil rights bill. Nine days later, the Senate passed the most sweeping civil rights legislation in the nation's history. The House followed by accepting the Senate version on July 2. When President Johnson signed the bill into law that same day in a nationally televised broadcast, he was joined by civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., who had been instrumental in leading the public mobilization efforts in favor of civil rights legislation. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 remains one of the most significant legislative achievements in American history."
Lot of Democrats in the south voted against this bill. Today they are Republicans.
