Bygones are bygones: Journos honor LBJ in prep for his big week
 Washington will toast President Johnson next week in honor of his 100th birthday, but a few reporters who covered his administration got things off to an early start at the Metropolitan Club on Tuesday night.Hosted by LBJ aide Lloyd Hand and legendary Washington Post scribe David Broder, the cocktail party drew the likes of Hearst’s Helen Thomas, the Dallas Morning News’ Carl Leubsdorf, Politico’s Andy Glass and The Hill’s Al Eisele. Explaining LBJ’s unique relationship with the press, Hand told us, “Some of the press felt like they worked for him.” Next week, amid a breakfast in the LBJ room of the Capitol and a luncheon in Statuary Hall, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell will proclaim “LBJ Day.” Other activities include a symposium on the 36th president at the National Archives, and a reunion of his staffers. |
