I like!
Inouye was also the main sponsor of an amendment to strip out $100 million or so alloted to close Guantanamo Bay in the war supplemental (demanding that Obama come up with a plan).
I would consider him a leading obstructionist to the expeditious closing of Guantanamo Bay. I'm really not a fan of what this war hero has become. He needs to go.
