Jade-log is the real deal and on my watchlist. The 60's is the new 40's I am told so hopefully we will read Jade-log's column for a long long time.

jade-log, like many on Newsvine, you do a great job of adding insight and perspective to the news of our time. Since the mainstream corporate media cannot write the news or connect the dots for fear of losing advertising dollars, it is our job to shine a light on the truth as citizen journalist - researchers, because if we don't, who will? Keep up the excellent work.
Great comments and seeds... Keep up the good work!
I started two new groups that I would like to invite you to join, if you are interested,

Take care!— McSpocky

jade I am not generally the one that that makes those types of remarks without provocation. And to be honest there are those days that...
I do apologize to those civil individuals that I may have offended. But to those of you that make the remarks about revenge and we should do this to so and so, ect.
Why make those remarks? If I wanted to be bitter about some, I certainly could and have been. Bitterness is like a cancer that consumes us from the inside out. We all need to work at getting well, and making stupid remarks about past leaders, etc will not help!
I am attempting to grow and become a better person. But at times ... Again sorry, I should have better self-control.
I've always wondered this...
Is your avatar supposed to be Olbermann with a gun to his head?
Grazie Jade-log.
Hello there jade-log. Not only do I wonder what your name means, I enjoy your posts.
I just read your comment on the GOP rejecting Pelosi's energy proposal. It was clear, thorough, informative and based on facts. How refreshing! I will definitely put you on my watchlist and am sending a friend invite. Thank you for your common sense.
