Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"I think that the Congress, through the Appropriations Committee and Authorizations Committee, have had very full details on our expenditures, in men, money, and materiel in Vietnam."

"I am confident that he is going to be a very effective, just, and aggressive Chairman."

"I applaud the Congress for its action on the bill that I am signing today, and I urge prompt action on the remaining recommendations."

"I think that when the heads of the nations come together it is always necessary to have an agenda and to have the matter pretty well planned out in advance."
