He's a Texan you know (as if he'd let you forget it).
Hmm you know I'm not sure that the US government knows what the ultimate goal is. There has been so many changes in the new Iraqi "government" that one has to wonder. However I agree with MagiK about the annexing part.

Sorry for taking this out of the context MagiK but this was the only part I wanted to comment on. Hello? Did you faint? Anyway those two are not exactly the only options are they?

Wouldn't you know. I actually deleted Mr.Mopery's quote before posting my post.
