So Long Sen Daniel Inouye, You Will Be Missed



Senator Daniel Inouye (Hawaii) died yesterday.  He has been a Senator as long as Hawaii has been a state.

I remember seeing him during the Watergate Hearings.  He seemed to be sharp and could smell a cover up or a lie quicker than the others represenatives on the panel.  That was the first time I noticed the one-armed Japanese-American.  He lost his arm in WW II.

As I heard more about him and what all he had to overcome with no hard feelings the more I respected him.  Still do.

He was 88.
