LBJ re: Bobby Baker AND Secret Service Agent Emory Roberts-thick as thieves!
LBJ re: Bobby Baker, a man he referred to as his son (Baker was his longtime aide who was later embroiled in scandal, serving time in jail, as well): "Bobby is my strong right arm. He is the last person I see at night and the first person I see in the morning." [ "LBJ: The Mastermind of the JFK Assassination" by Phillip Nelson (2011), page xii].
LBJ re: Secret Service Agent Emory Roberts, a man who miserably failed to protect JFK on 11/22/63---immediately switching allegiance to LBJ when JFK was first shot, recalling Agent Ready and, before that, Agent Lawton--- and who later become Appointment Secretary for LBJ while STILL a member of his Secret Service Detail (!): "He greets me every morning and tells me goodbye every night."
