Washington - President Barack Obama will announce today that retired Gen. James Jones will step down as the president's National Security Adviser and will be replaced by his deputy, Thomas Donilon, according to two officials with knowledge of the decision who spoke only on the condition of anonymity because it hadn't been made public.
Obama will make the announcement at 1 pm in the White House Rose Garden.
Jones departure is expected to be effective in two weeks, a source said.

Not to give my opinion and sully the picture for others, but there does seem to be some failure of consensus at the high levels of power - a failure of consensus with respect to method, or, possibly, policy.
Wanna bet that the next Big Event is a tar-baby ploy, something like the bay of pigs?
The new man, Thomas E.

It looks like an attempt to consolidate the "team", not that this conflict between the military crowd and the bankster crowd has any outcomes favorable to the pedestrian classes.
Let's assume that the islamilated hillbillies in afnamistan manage to cut the supply lines and the air support to the various outposts of the intrepid forces of freedom in theater and at the same time the Persians are attacked and fight back by shutting off the oil and sinking three fleet carriers - what's this new guy going to "advise"? Increase the handouts to the rich?
We're screwed any way things come out, not that all screwing is equal - it ain't.
