Some of his badassness comes from his dad. Sen. Inouye told the story of seeing, with his father, Japanese planes flying over Hawai'i on the morning of Dec. 7, 1941. His dad's exact words: "Goddamn Japs." (It's a bit shocking to read in print, especially these days, but it speaks to the abundance of Inouye B.A.)
