You got it right. A few months ago people were talking about the economy, the deficit, education, social security, and drug benefits for seniors. Iraq has now moved all of these things off the radar screen at least for another week.

On the other hand, Iraq may not go away because they have more oil than anybody and U.S. oil companies want it. Invasion and subsequent colonization is a fine way to get it quickly.
