THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

November 9, 1968

Dear Messrs. Smothers:

I am very grateful for your kind and thoughtful letter.

To be genuinely furiny at a time when the world is in crisis is a task that would tax the talents of a genius; to be consistently fair when stand-ards of fair play are constantly questioned de-mands the wisdom of a saint.

It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists. You have given the gift of laughter to our people. May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.

If ever an Emmy is awarded for graciousness, I will cast my vote for you.

THE SMOTHERS BROTHERS

Sincerely,
Lyndon B. Johnson

EncyclopΓ¦dia Britannica will continue to use β€˜Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

Thanks for posting this. It is important that people spread the truth among family and friends.

Interesting that as soon as I signed up on this site, my FB account was deleted because there was something against their community standards. If pics of cats and pics from the AIDS Ride is against community standards, then so be it. Each day I miss FB less and less. Glad I found Blue Sky.

My account was suspended for not following community standards. WTF? Had to prove who I am. WTF? Luckily I am not following those clowns.

I received a notice that my Facebook account has been suspended due to community rules. Don't know what I did but they want me to record a video showing my face from different angles to make sure it is me. Has anyone ever heard of this? I was hacked back in 2023 and FB was never the same for me.
