"House of Cards: Is Frank Underwood LBJ?"
By Roger Stone
The Stone Zone
April 30, 2014
According to the New York Times, the Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential
Library, surviving LBJ staff members, and the Johnson family has launched a
campaign to improve Johnson's image as an ex-President. This effort includes
batshit crazy first daughter Luci Bird Johnson, who will host a "Civil
Rights Conference" at the LBJ Library in April. Ms. Johnson will also
headline a Texas Bar Association Meeting in June. LBJ's greatness has been
subsumed by Vietnam, they contend.
Perhaps their timing is also affected by the portrayal of amoral, scheming
and intrinsically evil Vice President Frank Underwood on Season Two of
Netfix's House of Cards. Can there be any doubt that Frank Underwood as
played by Kevin Spacey is modeled after LBJ?
The folks at the taxpayer-subsided LBJ Presidential Library and the
surviving members of the Johnson family must feel besieged from right and
left. First came my New York Times bestselling book, The Man Who Killed
Kennedy - the Case Against LBJ [1], in which I established that LBJ was a
corrupt psychopath and serial murderer. I also used fingerprint and
eyewitness evidence to show how a long-time LBJ hit man shot from the Texas
Schoolbook Depository to kill John F. Kennedy. I make a compelling case that
LBJ had unique motive, means and opportunity to kill Kennedy and did so to
avoid criminal prosecution for corruption at the hand of Attorney General
Robert Kennedy the exposure of which was imminent. RFK was within days of
destroying LBJ with a LIFE Magazine expose into Johnson's corruption as well
as an RFK-fed Senate Rules Committee investigation into Johnson on the Bobby
Baker scandal.
I also tied LBJ to at least ten murders prior to John Kennedy. LBJ crony
Billie Sol Estes testified to a Texas State Grand Jury and informed the
Justice Department that he, Vice President Lyndon Johnson and LBJ's top
political aide Cliff Carter used LBJ's personal hit man Malcolm Wallace to
murder US Agricultural Dept. official Henry Marshall on June 3, 1961, as
well several government witnesses in the Estes scandal. Estes testified that
Carter said LBJ had ordered 17 murders to cover up corruption, bribery and
voter fraud. Additionally, I established that Johnson's corruption was of
Biblical proportions. Johnson lawyer Ed Clark told LBJ biographer Robert
Caro that LBJ's net worth by 1964 was an astounding $25 million.
In The Man Who Killed Kennedy - The Case Against LBJ, I also establish that
LBJ was a vile, vulgar, sadistic, psychopath who as a boy blew up a stray
dog with a stick of dynamite to see him die and beat a mule to death after
depriving it of water. LBJ was a coarse, crude, loud mouthed bully and
pathological liar. LBJ was also a vicious, cruel, vain, venal, abusive man
with an unlimited appetite for alcohol, cigarettes and women. His White
House Secretarial Pool was a harem with LBJ having "relations" with as many
as eight women. He fathered three illegitimate children while in public
office. [*]
My book did not sit well with the thinned ranks of Johnson acolytes, the
Johnson Legacy crowd. Former LBJ Son-in-law and Senator Chuck Robb and his
wife Lynda Bird Johnson are unhappy. Former Texas Lt. Governor Ben Barnes,
when not dating Teddy Kennedy's widow, is very angry about my book. CNN
Chairman Emeritus Tom Johnson, a former president of CNN and a former
publisher of The Los Angeles Times, who served for 40 years as chairman of
the L.B.J. Foundation, called a high ranking official at FOX to argue that a
segment scheduled at that network to talk about my book be canceled.
Then the Johnson acolytes had a stunning blow from the left when Clay Risen
of the New Republic wrote a stunning piece [2] pointing out that LBJ played
little real role in pushing through the 1964 Civil Rights Act and in fact
the arm twisting he did do back-fired in the House and the Senate.
This explains why the Johnson Library and those dedicated to burnishing the
LBJ image have launched a PR offensive breathlessly reported by the New York
Times Adam Nagourney. Take for example this quote from the Times story;
"Luci Baines Johnson leaned forward in her father's private suite at
the L.B.J. Presidential Library, her voice breaking as she recounted the
"agony of Vietnam" that engulfed Lyndon Baines Johnson and the pain she
feels to this day of witnessing his presidency judged through the prism of a
failed war.
"Nobody wanted that war less than Lyndon Johnson," said Ms. Johnson, 66, who
is the president's younger daughter. "No matter how hard he tried, he didn't
seem to be able to get out of that quagmire. Not only did he not get out of
it in his lifetime, but his legacy indeed has that weight of the world on
it."
Please spare me the crocodile tears. How can Luci Bird not mention the
millions LBJ and Lady Bird made from the Vietnam war through her trust's
ownership of stock in defense contractors like Bell Helicopter, Halliburton,
Brown and Root and General Dynamics. The Johnsons profited handsomely from
war the while 60,000 Americans died. Is Ms. Johnson unaware that LBJ based
his massive escalation on the Tonkin Gulf incident, an attack on American
interests that most historians now believe didn't really happen?
Maureen Dowd, also writing for the New York Times, said, "Maybe ratcheting
up the war with more than 500,000 troops and sending so many young Americans
to their deaths halfway around the world based on chest-thumping advice and
a na�ve theory of democratic dominoes was a deterrent to getting out."
Indeed.
Indeed Luci Bird continues to lead with her chin; from the Times-
"Asked how her father would ultimately be judged, she responded: "I
think that's something the historians will look at. But can you think of
where we would be without Lyndon Johnson? If we had not passed a civil
rights bill? Think of what we would be like if Daddy hadn't signed that
bill."
In fact LBJ was an arch-segregationist who as leader of the southern block
in the US Senate killed every significant civil rights or anti-lynching bill
until 1957 when he passed a weak Civil rights bill to soften opposition to
him from party liberals as he prepared for the 1960 Presidential race. LBJ
dropped a poison pill into the final act that required those charged with
violating the law be tried before state (all white) not federal juries.
Johnson embraced civil rights as a sop to the left because he murdered John
Kennedy and because he wanted to avert a 1964 challenge from his left from
Robert F. Kennedy. In his own White House tapes he can be heard wailing,
"The Catlics and Nigrahs gonna git me," he wails. LBJ told a Democrat
Governor, "I'll have these n_____s voting Democratic for a hundred years.
Luci Byrd may not be the best messenger for the campaign spin on Civil
Rights. "Where is my n____r" she wailed at a 1964 campaign stop in Florida
when her manservant didn't respond to her demands, according to an interview
conducted with a Air Force One Steward by veteran Journalist and Author
Ronald Kessler.
Veteran Texas Journalist Robert Parry joins the LBJ Legacy crowd in claiming
that Richard Nixon sabotaged the Vietnamese peace talks and that prevented
LBJ from ending the war. In fact LBJ called for a bombing halt only days
before the 1964 election with no significant concession from the North
Vietnamese and no real prospect for a negotiated settlement. It was a ploy
to elect his Vice President Humbert Humphrey. LBJ fumed it was "treason."
LBJ, on the other hand, ordered a false flag attack on the USS Liberty by
Israel in which 34 Americans died and 171 were wounded as a provocation for
a war with Egypt as well as falsifying the Tonkin Gulf attack to justify
send 500,000 troops to Vietnam. Treason, anyone?
The efforts by the Johnson acolytes to rewrite history are part of the
effort. The Times quoted Larry Temple, a former Johnson aide who is the
chairman of the LBJ Foundation. Mr. Temple said he had, "encountered people
who believed that Johnson did not leave voluntarily but rather was forced
out while still in office." LBJ was, of course, forced from the 1968 race
after a dismal showing in the New Hampshire Primary where Senator Eugene
McCarthy running on an anti-war platform would get 42% to Johnson's 47%. LBJ
would even ponder jumping back into the race with a dramatic landing by
helicopter at the tumultuous 1968 Democratic Convention. LBJ would abandon
this idea only when Chicago Mayor Richard Daley would tell the President he
and the Chicago police could not instead guarantee the President safety.
Mark Updegrowe the director of the L.B.J. Presidential Library and the
author of a Johnson biography is quoted in last weeks Times saying "There's
no question he should be judged on the entirety of his policy." Those
policies include murder, corruption, racism, bribery, war profiteering and
lying. Indeed it is time for Lyndon Johnson to be judged by the entirety of
his record.
