Sr. Military Man:Obama is Worse Than Clinton,Much Worse!

Lt. Col. Buzz Patterson,Human Events

When I was first named to serve at the side of President Bill Clinton and carry the nuclear “football” containing the nation’s nuclear capability as a young Air Force officer,I was proud and grateful. Over the next two years,however,my experiences in the Clinton White House turned my gratitude and awe into shock,revulsion,and sorrow as I experienced the cavalier and self-serving way Clinton went about the business of running our country. I wrote my first book,Dereliction of Duty, documenting our former President’s contempt for the military,his indifference to important issues except insofar as they served his own political or personal purposes,and his failure to accept his responsibilities as our commander-in-chief. Indeed,it is my sincere belief that the dereliction of duty and negligence of Bill Clinton paved the way for the tragic events and deaths of September 11,2001.

Now,tragically,I see history repeating itself with the presidency of Barack Obama. Only this time the conduct and dereliction of Obama and his administration are on pace to result in devastation of a much larger scale than that even of 9/11. In only a year and a half in office,Obama has not only reversed many of the successful accomplishments of his predecessor which have kept us safe;he’s done it at lightning speed. In doing so,Obama is clearly placing the United States in an increasingly vulnerable and threatened condition. As I hoped to accomplish in writing Dereliction of Duty,I again caution my nation in my new book,Conduct Unbecoming:How Barack Obama is Destroying Our Military and Endangering Our Security.

In Barack Obama we have elected a foreigner. He is a stranger in our midst. No,not in the fact that he was born in Hawaii and spent some years growing up in Indonesia,nor is it about his race,but in his approach to the land that he governs—the United States of America. We have elected a leader who is more comfortable bowing to the Japanese Emperor Akihito,King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia,and Chinese President Hu Jintao,then he is in embracing the character,the integrity and the exceptionalism of America—and defending the land that he calls home.
