Did yall know Sen. Robert Byrd has a book coming out??

[skooooo]

To be released July 26th - Losing America: Confronting a Reckless and Arrogant Presidency

Book Description
A ringing call to action by one of the country's longest serving and most respected legislators.
In the months and years following September 11, Senator Robert C. Byrd has viewed with alarm what he considers to be a "slow unraveling of the people's liberties," when all dissenting voices were stilled and awesome power swung suddenly to the president to fight a "war on terror."

This path violates historic American principles—it shows no regard for the balance of powers or the role of the Congress; it invades our privacy; and it eliminates public participation in and understanding of government. Swept along, we have entered a war without proper consideration and rushed dangerous legislation through Congress.

Now is the time to regain the Constitution, to return to the values and processes that made America great. Byrd does not shrink from speaking the truth to an ever more aggressive and imperial White House.

Bob Graham is bringing a book out (don't know date)... an the person discusing this said that if you thought Kennedy was upset, you hadn't seen Graham's book excerpts.

4. I already pre-ordered it.

I think I have 5 books waiting to be read and one of them is "My Life" which will take me forever to get through. I'm hoping I can get some reading in while on vacation. :shrug:

5. So many books, so little time!

But that one has to be on my "must-read" list.

There is no bigger defender of the Constitution than Senator Byrd. And I love my Constitution.

There aren't many like him left.
