Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"Never have the people of this country had more justification for pride, nor more reason to be grateful, than they have today because of men like you."

"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."

"Goodby and God bless each of you."

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