LOL at LBJ and J.Edgar Hoover


Concerning the Walter Jenkins incident when Johnson asked J. Edgar, "How do you know when a man is...?" I was all like "Look who's he's asking?"

Boston and Philly love to slander us, but they don t have as many fans as us

lol ya that was very funny in an ironic way. J Edgar would know. That particular scene was probably even funnier on a broadway stage.

If you watch LBJ in that scene he smirks just enough to know he's letting Hoover know he knows all about Hoover's sex life and that Hoover should realize it and do as he's told. A wonderful little bit of acting.

When LBJ says to Hoover "I'm sure you'd know. . . ." in the scene I had to laugh. The look on Cranston's face was priceless.
