Earlier today, the Journal reported on the comments by Sen. Saxby Chambliss and Rep. Sanford Bishop on the death of Hawaii senator, Daniel Inouye yesterday.

In an email to the Journal earlier today, Georgia’s junior senator, Sen. Johnny Isakson, had this to say on Inouye’s death:

“I am deeply saddened by the passing of my friend and colleague, Daniel Inouye. The people of Hawaii and our nation have lost a war hero and public servant who served our country though many important events in our history. Few have contributed more to our country than Daniel Inouye. He was a great American who will be sorely missed. I send my condolences to his wife, Irene, his son, Daniel, and his entire family.”
