A beautiful woman and conservationist! May her vision for a more beautiful America bloom ever after. Rest in peace, Mrs. Johnson.

Lady Bird Johnson was a lady indeed. One last thing that she accomplished before her husband left office was to request that wild flowers be planted alongside the highways to beautify the country. I for one have deeply appreciated Lady Bird's gesture of kindness to America. Every time I travel and see those beautiful flowers aside the road I think of her and smile. Lady Bird was a lady indeed.

@wolfblitzercnn: Redskins-Giants always exciting. Both teams have a lot to prove. And Giants can still salvage playoffs. Skins just need a win.
