Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"I have just come from a meeting with the leaders of both parties in the Congress which was held in the Cabinet Room in the White House."

"In this situation hesitation and vacillation could mean death for many of our people, as well as many of the citizens of other lands."

"We hope to see a government freely chosen by the will of all the people."

"I know that no American serviceman wants to kill anyone."
