        Speaker Rayburn said: “Some men grow in office. Others just swell.” Interesting insight.

        Speaker Rayburn was a giant of 20th Century legislative history. He deserves more attention from historians.

        I don't see any women in that photo. Did they have to sit in a segregated section?

        I'm glad none of them are alive today to see their country's hard-fought victory in the Cold War squandered by Eisenhower's party to cover up an unelected grifter's business failures and crimes.

        We could have a historic pic with how many living presidents we have now, but I get why none of them would want to stand in a pic with Trump.

        I have been to the Rayburn library. There is a bigger picture that shows Gerald Ford there also. Think Nixon also but not positive. I need to go back
