Retired Major General James Jones is our National Security Advisor (NSA). Addressing the Council on Foreign Relations he told those in attendance exactly what his chain of command is. "As the most recent National Security Advisor of the United States, I take my daily orders from Dr. Kissinger, filtered down through General Brent Scowcroft and Sandy Berger, who is also here. We have a chain of command in the National Security Council that exists today."

This is more of the change we have come to expect from the Obama Administration. Henry Kissinger served as NSA under Johnson, Nixon, and Ford. Scowcroft served under Ford and Bush, Sr. while Berger served under Clinton. All together you have a chain of command that goes back to 1968. These men helped guide us into wars, skirmishes, and military actions resulting in countless deaths, injuries, and massive debt while maintaining a strict interventionist mentality.

Throughout his comments he also emphasized the important connection between the NSA, the National Security Council and Obama's National Economic Council led by Larry Summers. He assured the audience in Munich our National Security Council was prepared to be actively involved in supporting our international allies in all areas. "Our Secretary-General has been a strong voice for developing a new strategic vision for the alliance; and judging from this conference, this has been one of the finest conferences I have attended in Munich; and judging from this conference, the time has come to do so."

In dangerous times when our individual and state sovereignty is under attack there was no comfort to be found from the changes Jones discussed. We continue marching away from our Constitutionally guaranteed inalienable right of liberty. This is simply one more in an ever growing list of dangerous realities we will face under the Obama administration. A change we can believe in appears to be one that will include more of the same assault on individual freedom.
