Title: Losing America Subtitle: Confronting a Reckless and Arrogant Presidency Author: Robert C. Byrd Narrator: Grover Gardner Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 41 mins Language: English Release date: 01-27-05 Publisher: Books on Tape Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 60 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: In the months and years following September 11, 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 historical American principles, it shows no regard for the balance of power 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 aggressive and imperial White House. ©2004 Robert C. Byrd; (P)2004 Books on Tape, Inc. Critic Reviews: "Attacks on the Bush presidency have proliferated in recent months, but few critics bring to the argument the weight of Senator Byrd (D-W.Va.), who has served under 11 presidents. Few combine his scholar's understanding of constitutional government with the experience gained in his nearly half-century of Senate tenure." (Publishers Weekly)
