Wow! NPR just now juxtaposing Bush-LBJ quotes
Good lord. They have audio clips of LBJ convincing Americans on Vietnam and Bush making the argument for Iraq.

On the show "The Next Big Thing" -- incredibly dramatic.

This is going to be good.

4. ABC's "This Week" Did the Same
Mid-September, I believe. Played LBJ video clips interspersed with George W. Bush clips (of his "87 Billion Dollar" speech).

7. no tapes or transcripts are available

8. WHen they juxtapose
the quote where LBJ said he would not seek another term up against Bush saying he will not seek a second term - now that will be dramatic! :bounce:

12. Aren't there any tapes of Nixon saying we have to withdraw the troops
from Vietnam? (noticing that our involvement in Vietnam didn't end under his reign, either).
