		<description>My gosh.  I read that, then re-read it.  And I have to hand it to you, Ranando, I wish I&#039;d thought of that myself.  That, in my own little demented mind, actually makes sense.  I&#039;m slapping my forehead right now, aghast at how simple that really is.  I&#039;m stunned.  .  .

		<description>Yeah, but one downside not mentioned, if we make Iraq a state then the damned tree huggers will automatically want to stop ALL drilling and production, stop any and all pipeline construction, it must be BAD for something, camels maybe??

And the air pollution has to go too, you know the damned tree huggers, they are the biggest part of the reason we&#039;re already screwed on oil production here in the USA, and if Iraq was to become USA, well, can we legalize shooting Green Peace members?? :?</description>

		<description>More positives on making Iraq part of the United States by Bill Cusack.

&lt;i&gt;Many problems will be instantly solved. There will be no question of &quot;When do we bring the troops home?&quot; They will be home. What politician wouldn&#039;t want to take credit for bringing home the troops? Whenever we send troops to Iraq in the future we&#039;ll be sending them home.&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;i&gt;Every Iraqi can have full U.S. citizenship, which means the right to carry guns and form militias. They&#039;ll just be good &#039;ol Americans diggin&#039; on their constitutional rights. They&#039;ll have free speech, separation of church and state, freedom of religion, the whole kit and kaboodle.&lt;/i&gt; 

&lt;i&gt;The biggest prize of all is their oil, which is nice. Think about this for a second: we will no longer be dependent on foreign oil markets. We can start pumping at capacity and really start partying. OPEC? We&#039;ll be a member of OPEC- and a member with a pretty big stick. How much would Dubya and Cheney like to send a representative to those meetings? Can you feel Cheney&#039;s heart ready to burst just thinking about it? We can build pipelines, ports -- whatever is required -- and settle into our SUVs again without having to worry.&lt;/i&gt;

It sounds better and better all the time.</description>

		<description>Iâ€™ll take it one step further, make it our 51st state.

Build a military presence that is second to none and load them with NUKES.

Turn all oil fields over to Exxon and other American Oil Companies. Open Iraq up to only American Companies and start building, put the Iraqiâ€™s to work and pay them well. Build malls, housing tracks, schools, hospitals, roads, and highways, water treatment plants and Military Bases, everywhere. Open it up to tourism let Disney build some parks. Do away with Islamic Rule and allow the people to be free, completely free.

Make it the Gem of the Middle East.

In other words, stop fucking around with these people.

Within 10 years, once the rest of the people in the Middle East saw how they could be living, our enemies would fail and fall.

This is not that far-fetched to me. Hell weâ€™re there, lets enjoy it.

Talk about making the World a better place.</description>
