        I distinctly remember this. I drove my 6th grade teacher crazy - Truman died in December '72 & we learned the flag would fly at half mast for 30 days. LBJ died 27 days later & I really needed to know how the flag situation would be handled. I was THAT kid. 🙄

        There's a sombre Spiro Agnew behind the American flag, less than 10 months away from resigning in disgrace. As the legacy of LBJ attests, politics takes its tolls in more way than one. 🖖

        I was 12 when LBJ was sworn in as President. He seemed like such an old geezer, especially following JFK, but he was only 65 when he died. Younger than I am now...

        45 years later, our 45th president lies standing up and wraps himself in more flags.

        LBJ was so crooked they had to screw him into the ground.
