C'mon, guys...
Let's split the difference.
Larry: Sure, not every conversation's about Iraq, but this one was. Graham was talking about that "just one line" in the SOTU.
Tom: I interpreted your remarks in light of the above context. You can shoulder a little blame for not being clearer. Your reply was perfectly clear, your initial comments weren't.
The objectified Robert: You could admit to being prone to the "if you think like a hammer, everything looks like a nail" syndrome these days.
This Robert: Yeah, mea culpa, Iraq has been weighing heavily on my mind these days.
