Huffington Post gives us a startling account of Lyndon Johnson's reactions after the assassinaton of President Kennedy. The source is an "a recently declassified oral history by Brigadier General Godfrey McHugh, President Kennedy's military aide on the Dallas trip."
What McHugh claimed to have witnessed next was shocking. "I walked in the toilet, in the powder room, and there he was hiding, with the curtain closed," McHugh recalled. He claimed that LBJ was crying, "They're going to get us all. It's a plot. It's a plot. It's going to get us all.'" According to the General, Johnson "was hysterical, sitting down on the john there alone in this thing."
