Ok. So I'm reading Robert A. Caro's The Years of Lyndon Johnson - Master of the Senate and I can't believe how big of an a$$hole LBJ was. I have to stop reading because he pisses me off so much. I just finished reading the chapters about his destruction of Leland Olds, Chairman of the Federal Power Commission because LBJ's Texas oil buddies felt they weren't making enough money on natural gas. Holy Crap. I never was a big fan of LBJ, but the first third of this book is completely destroying *any* regard I may have had.

I'll finish the book, but it's a good thing it's not paper or it would have been thrown at the wall too many times already.
