Book Review of Robert Caro's THE PASSAGE OF POWER
#12
In my opinion you are seeing indirect admission of Johnson's involvement in this syrup job by Caro. There's some high intelligence involved in this sweetening of Johnson's image. What they are doing is approaching the 50th anniversary by first cleaning-up Johnson's involvement on the outside perimeter before going for the ballsy inner perimeter reaffirmation of the Warren Commission. Caro is calling Johnson a legislative genius on PBS in order not have to call him the complicit criminal accomplice he was. Once again the piece ends in a euphemism for the Assassination known as "the VietNam War".
