(Has any President in American history left behind as much lasting damage as George W. Bush?) LBJ 1. 58,000 American service men dead for nothing. 2. $5 trillion spent on the war on poverty. Today things are worse under Obama. 3. Theft of our Social Security retirement savings by eliminating the dedicated fund. 4. During 1973 testimony before Congress, the CEO of America's largest cooperative of milk producers said that while Johnson was President, his cooperative had leased Johnson's private jet at a "plush" price, which Johnson wanted to continue once he was out of office. 5. Johnson continued the FBI's wiretapping of Martin Luther King, Jr.. As a result of listening to the FBI's tapes, remarks on King's personal lifestyle were made by several prominent officials, including Johnson, who once said that King was a “hypocritical preacher.” Johnson also authorized the tapping of phone conversations of others, including the Vietnamese friends of a Nixon associate.
