| The late Sen. Daniel Inouye was remembered Sunday as an American hero whose legacy as a war veteran and longtime senator would be felt across Hawaii for years to come. The memorial service at Honolulu´s National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific was attended by more than 1,000 people, including an emotional President Barack Obama, who had previously called the late senator one of his first political inspirations. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Hawaii´s congressional delegation and a number of other senators, cabinet secretaries and other dignitaries were also on hand at Sunday´s service.

How great for all the senators and their staff, relatives and friends to have to attend a funeral in Hawaii. Check out their attendance at other fallen senators and I think you´ll find that they were just a bit closer to Sen. Inouye in death than in life. I realize this sounds cynical, but how can it be otherwise with this group? They spend on themselves and their constituents as if there is no tomorrow, and tomorrow is coming very soon. Their gig is up, and we´re all going to suffer the consequences; at least Sen. Inouye won´t have to endure it.

It reminds me of Bill Clinton´s behavior at Ron Brown´s funeral. Bill was a shuckin´ and a jivin´ as he walked out of the ceremony, until he saw the cameras, and immediately started to look sad and teary eyed. He was good at that sort of thing.
As an old white guy, who has no sense of fashion or style for women - what´s up with Michelle´s dress? Is that appropriate for a funeral???

Who cares about the death of some old fogey liberal Democrat senator? All that senator did was vote for more debt, more entitlements, more spending, and more fiscal nonsense. Part of our problem is that our people re-elect these moron senators until they die in office in senility. And then we wonder why we have the problems we do?

Emotion: The only emotion Obama feels is self love, no one else exist.
As for Inouye he got the send off he deserved, with his President doing self worship.
The Senator was a legitimate War hero for that I salute him. His political career is another matter.

Inouye was a legitimate WWII hero.
Unfortunately he squandered that legacy of putting body and soul in harms way to defend the US Constitution. With his lock step support of the Democrat Welfare State Agenda, his uber-liberal politics spit on the very heart of the Constitution.
His legacy is one of massive debt, government dependency, unconstitutional Federal power grabs and indebtedness.
Not a pretty end result for a man who sacrificed so much in War to defend the Constitution.

Re #6´s question about MO´s attire at Sen. Onouye´s funeral -- NO, MO´s dress/sweater is NOT appropriate for a First Lady to wear to a Senator´s funeral, in Hawaii or anywhere else. Nor is the rag tied around her head or her hair style appropriate for a Senator´s funeral. Never, in the history of America, prior to the Obama pResidency, has a first lady dressed in such a disrespectful, unladylike manner.

Last fall, Ginnette Powell traveled from her home in Boston´s Dorchester section to her old middle school in South Boston - a journey of just two miles, but one that covered a huge emotional distance. Finally, she was able to leave the painful past behind. Powell endured the explosive battle over desegregation in Boston in the 1970s. Tears come to her eyes when she talks about how it took her decades to return to the place where she never felt safe as an African-American seventh-grader."It was scary because of what you were going into, getting bricks thrown at your bus.

"I don´t understand it," the Arizona Republican said on Sunday of the threat coming from Sen. Rand Paul,Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Mike Lee and nine other Republicans. "The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.” "What are we afraid of? ...

A few years after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Lindalyn Adams was escorting visitors on a bus traveling down Elm Street near Dealey Plaza. “I was pointing out the John Neely Bryan cabin and the Old Red Courthouse, and suddenly I realized the whole bus was leaning towards the right as we were going close to the Texas School Book Depository, and the women [were] pointing and saying, “Is that? Is that? Is that?’” Adams recalled during an oral history interview. She knew, of course, what “that” meant. “That” was where Kennedy had been shot.

"She was everything a foreign service officer should be: smart, capable, eager to serve, and deeply committed to our country and the difference she was making for the Afghan people," Kerry said of the slain official.

The Keystone XL Pipeline has emerged as a major issue in the Massachusetts special U.S. Senate election, with environmental groups committing nearly one-third of the $1.25 million in outside money already spent on campaigns. The biggest spender so far is the League of Conservation Voters, which has already spent more than $545,000 to help elect Democratic candidate and Rep. Ed Markey, who has a strong pro-environment platform. “Our field campaign is resonating with voters across Massachusetts,” said Navin Nayak, a political specialist for the group. “The people of Massachusetts want climate change champion Ed Markey representing them.”

The stop leaves the people waiting for transportation exposed to the elements.(Snip) Some $800,000 of the money came from federal and state tax dollars via grants,

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say?

To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race.

The budget President Barack Obama will submit on April 10 will contain a proposal that would prohibit individuals from accumulating more than $3 million in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and tax-preferred retirement accounts. According to a White House statement, the Obama administration believes the current rules allow some wealthy individuals "to accumulate many millions of dollars in these accounts, substantially more than is needed to fund reasonable levels of retirement saving."
