That guy was so nice to me.
I met him at The Petroleum Club in Tulsa and he introduced to many leaders in industry and politics.
Rest in Peace
Agreed. I met with him at his DC office with 2 other colleagues. This was during the late-BO years when he was Minority leader of the Armed Forces Committee.
A few things I recall: “I’ll be a Senator until I can no longer fly my plane upside down in a 360-degree loop.” “Being a Senator is one of the hundred most powerful people.” “We used to have the ability to fight two wars. Now we can barely do one.”
That last comment was just depressing. After the meeting we stood outside in the hallway a bit stunned. Subsequently we had a meeting in Michelle Bachman’s office. Senator Inhofe’s office was much larger and nicer.
