Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"Mrs. Johnson, Luci, and I, the distinguished Governors, the many able, patriotic Members of Congress from both parties, are grateful to you for your warmth, for your generosity, for your hospitality."

"We in America have much to be thankful for, much to be grateful for."

"We have given our blood and our treasure so that others might have the same opportunities."

"We always just love to come to the great State of Illinois."
