According to the article his apology was more about setting things straight with the school itself (although he did cc Obama).
Inouye apologized in a letter to the president of the Punahou School, according to Jennifer Sabas, his chief of staff. The letter was sent to Punahou President James Scott late last week, Sabas said Tuesday. A copy and a short note were delivered to Obama as well, she said.
So how does Obama respond?
"Shame on Danny for trying to pull that stunt," Obama said. "I went to Punahou on a scholarship. I was raised by a single mom and my grandmother."
Real nice. His grandfather was still around, though. I wonder why he ignored his grandfather? Maybe it would make him appear less of a victim?

Good to see BO’s family favors, benefited from school choices.
I’m sure he will support vouchers and competition for all, as President.
