About me
You probably are looking at my clips or comments thinking I'm a Bush Loyalist or something like that. Well, I'm not. I'm someone who believes in understanding the reality of a situation and defending what I believe in.

I believe that America is a great country and has been forced into a role of the world's humanitarian and policeman, because there are few other nations willing and able to step up to the plate. I abhor people who think they can use their hatred for Bush as a reason to spit upon this great nation. I'm not fond of the guy much myself, but I think he's taken a legitimate stand on Terrorism and has the balls to act on this belief. And I believe this course of action is the right one to follow. I also support and applaud our Military; keep up the good fight!!

If you try to push ridiculous statements disguised as news, get your facts straight and be prepared to go at it!
Why I use Clipmarks
Because it's an interesting way to look at any given subject and allows me to interact with people. Plus it's good to debate about today's big issues and shed some light on the facts, instead of watching the antiwar protesters try to run this place.

Coalition Deaths in Iraq
UpStateMike
by UpStateMike  3-20-2008    1
 This is an interesting website for everyone, regardless of the side you are on. It lists all reported causalities in amazing detail. Personally, I think it's a humbling look at the cost of war and appreciate each and every life given in this conflict. We can all hope there is some good to come out of this, and that their lives were not lost in vain.

coffee is good for you!
UpStateMike
by UpStateMike  4-23-2007    2
 Few things in life - well...legal things you can do in public - are as enjoyable to me as drinking freshly roasted, freshly brewed, quality grown cup of coffee. Don't get me wrong, I don't think drinking 3 pots a day can be good for you. But that being said, it's great to hear of recent reports like this one.

Time for Jackson and Sharpton to Step Down
UpStateMike
by UpStateMike  4-13-2007    11
 This article really does a good job to put things in perspective. As a white person who doesn't like or listen to Imus, him getting fired for his poor comments seems to be taking the direction of the situation to a very hypocritical level. Read the entire article, as it's probably the deepest and most well thought out one I've read about this topic.

623,000 fugitive Illegal Aliens in the US!
UpStateMike
by UpStateMike  3-28-2007    6
 This is pretty scary to think that there are so many "fugitives" in America at this time. Not only that, this is estimated at only 5.4% of ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS? That's scary. That would mean over 11 MILLION Illegal Aliens are in America right now.

Iraqi Batallion takes over for Brits
UpStateMike
by UpStateMike  3-21-2007   
 "This is another important step for the Iraqi Army as they develop their capabilities and gradually take more responsibility for their own security. It is pleasing that the move went so smoothly and offers encouraging signs for the future as everybody continues down the road towards Iraqi self reliance,” said British military spokesman, Captain Ollie Pile. "It is in everybody's interests – the coalition, the Iraqi Security Forces and, above all, the Iraqi people themselves - that we continue to make progress."
