No, Danny Inouye, the little Japanese creep from Hawaii tried out for
that role. It was a little too big for him. He has slowly faded to a
very minor role. Ollie was the `good samaritan' trying to free
American hostages in Iran and support the democratic movement in Latin
American, just as one would expect a Marine hero from the Vietnam era
to behave.

Then there was the left wing extremist, Boland, too embarrassed by the
exposure of the real agenda of his amendment (to support left wing
extremists in Latin america) to even show up in his seat except for
cameo appearances. The jerk, Wright took up Boland's cause and went on
a personal mission to Central America that ultimately led to his
resignation from the Speaker' seat and the House. It was amusing
watching the democrat dominoes fall.

In times of peril and danger, it is not unusual to have a Marine stand
up and be counted for democracy in the service of his country.
