Lyndon Johnson treated Lady Bird like a dirty rug for decades, constantly disrespecting and humiliating her. LBJ wanted to marry her on Day 1 because he had heard her dad had a little money. LBJ spent the rest of his life stealing from the public and taking massive bribes & kickbacks when he was not murdering John Kennedy. I was told this anecdote from someone close to Democrat Gib Lewis. LBJ told his friends "I met a girl named Lady Bird, but she looked like an Ugly Bee" to me. Did she love LBJ? Yes - but it is really sad that awful way he treated her so often. His later years he was depressed and almost crazy. She took care of him as he was so bitter. The man lived an awful life. I met Lady Bird's masseuse for 20 years recently. I asked "what did she say about LBJ?" The answer was she never talked about him. I live in Austin, TX.
