"Humorist P.J. O'ROurke has said that putting Democrats in charge of foreign policy is like giving the car keys and a bottle of whiskey to a teenager. Buzz Patterson explains here why this is no joke." - Steven F. Hayward, author. "Buzz Patterson's words are harsh, but his conclusion is inescapable. Today's Democrats cannot be trusted with America's defense." - Jed Babbin, former deputy undersecretary of Defense and author. "Is John Kerry qualified to be president? No way, says Lieutenant Colonel Robert "Buzz" Patterson (USAF, Ret.), author of the huge New York Times bestseller Dereliction of Duty. And the rest of the Democrats aren't any better. In his stunning new book, Lt. Col. Patterson - not only a combat veteran, but a former White House military aide who carried the "nuclear football" for President Clinton - makes an overwhelming case that the once great Democratic Party cannot again be entrusted with the nation's defense and foreign policy. Coming from a military family of conservative Democrats, Lt. Col. Patterson learned the hard way that the Democratic Party of Jimmy Carter, Bill and Hillary Clinton, and John Kerry behaves with reckless disregard for American security and for the lives of America's soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines. With coverage that spans the battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq to debates in Congress, Lt. Col. Patterson reveals: How John Kerry "staged" a combat scene in Vietnam (for which he was decorated); Why Kerry received an early discharge for his Purple Hearts while Navy SEALs, U.S. Marines, Green Berets, and combat infantrymen did not; How Kerry's lies before Congress about the Vietnam War (his infamous testimony is reproduced her in its entirety) were used to justify North Vietnamese torture of American POWs; Why Kerry's behavior as a recently returned veteran verged on treason - and is typical of the new Democratic Party; How the disastrous presidencies of Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton encouraged radical Islamic terror against the United States; Why Bush critic Richard Clarke - with whom Lt. Col. Patterson served in the Clinton White House - is a fraud; How the Democrats continue to gut our military effectiveness. Relentless in its critique - told with all the passion and conviction of a combat pilot - and urgent in its message, Reckless Disregard belongs in the hands of every American patriot." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

"Buzz Patterson thought he'd seen it all as the military aide to President Bill Clinton. Turns out, he was wrong, Barack Obama is worse, much worse, and his failures as America's commander in chief are profoundly affecting the U.S. military and our ability to win the great ideological battle with Islamic extremism. Read this book. It will educate you and shock you at the same time. Brilliant read." - General Thomas G. McInerney, Fox News Military analyst and bestselling author. "America's biggest national security threat just might be the President of the United States. Sound shocking - it's meant to be; but unfortunately, it's not the plot of a White House thriller: it's real life. Bestselling military analyst Buzz Patterson - who once served in the White House as the president's senior military aide responsible for the "nuclear football" - has seen presidential irresponsibility before. But what he reveals about President Barack Obama is even more disturbing than whant he witnessed in the White House of Bill Clinton. From Obama's bowing to the king of Saudi Arabia, the Communist president of China, and the emperor of Japan, to his "America apology tour," his refusal to identify radical Islam as the enemy in the war on terror, his unilateral withdrawal of a planned missile defense shield from Eastern Europe, and his administration's public downgrading of our "special relationship" with Great Britain, Barack Obama's foreign policy seems to be never to stand up for America, but always to retreat from leadership, appease our enemies, and insult our allies - and even our own military. Barack Obama is only the second president since the Second World War to have no military experience; as commander in chief in a time of war, that lack of experience could be deadly. In Conduct Unbecoming, you'll learn: Why Obama could willfully lose the war on terror; Why Obama will never be a "centrist" Democrat' How the Obama administration's "rules of engagement" in Afghanistan are costing American lives; How the Obama administration's aggressive push to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" could lead to counterless lawsuits and the loss of up to a quarter of our armed forces. Bonus: The Obama administration's official national security strategy - identifying "climate change" and not radical Islam as a threat to national security. Plus: "Are You Safer?" a complete rundown of the foreign policy failures of the Obama administration. Incisive and comprehensive, Conduct Unbecoming is the most important book yet written on how Barack Obama is endangering our national security." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
