i was neutral before, mainly not quite convinced that we ought to go it alone.
now, i'm in support of staying there, but unhappy with the means; i'm extraordinarily upset with the revisionist history the (neo)conservatives are putting out.
i've never held a high opinion of bush; his botched dealings with nkorea, his tax cut for which apparently "everybody" got $300 back to stimulate the economy whereas my family got a poke in the eye (a note that said, "hehe! you're not getting anything this year!"), his tax cut to help families in which mine got a grand total of $0, and his alienation of many of our allies.
i cannot vote for him next year. i don't know who i will vote for instead.

5 out of 37 have changed their position on the war... pretty amazing for Apolyton... that 5 people would change their position on anything

Yea, I guess with a glass half full approach it is fairly remarkable.
But still, people are so partisan and ideological now a days, very little can change people's minds it seems.
Now that I think of it, I should have included other options in the poll asking whether the last year went as they expected. That was my original intent, but I forgot.
For me I was against the war to begin with, it went mostly like I expected but not quite, cause I thought WMD would be found and/or used. I still think going to war was a bad idea.

Ok, in that case, I'll vote that I haven't changed my opinion and that I was against it. Happy?

Much of the new information remains classified, but the question is why? I can only speculate that it has something to do with ongoing investigations.

Most likely, to protect the source of the intellegence.

I supported invasion of states harbouring ancient relics then as I yet do now.
