And as usual he’s fabricating his life history. Inouye was elected in 1962 and sworn in in Jan. 1963 when 0 was 1 not 2 years old.
The Watergate hearings were in the summer of 1973 not 1972 when 0 was 11 years old. He’s told this story before in some speech or maybe it’s in one of his fictional biographies. I’m not sure any more.
His sister Maya did not turn 2 until August 15 1972 and in a picture I have seen of the two of them together on this trip she looks exactly the right age of an almost 2 year old.
When you put all of this together I don’t believe the whole Watergate-Inouye story. As most things in 0’s biography this doesn’t make sense.
You beat me to it but only because I was waiting for my nails to dry....
