LBJ and McNamara

From a recorded phone call in March, 1964.

McNamara: Mr. President.

LBJ: I want you to dictate to me on this situation in Viet Nam. Now I’ve got to have some kind of summarized, logical, factual, analysis of it.

McNamara: Well I do think Mr. President, that it’d be wise for you to say as little as possible.

Bird-out
