Ten,
re: So were you against the attack on the Taliban after 9/11? If not, what changed?
A lot changed. First, OBL managed to perform the most successful terrorist attack ever, killing thousands, and attacking US symbols of power. Second, the Taliban refused to turn him over; they became integrated. Third, and probably most important, at that particular moment in history, we were justified in seeking immediate revenge, and for anyone that didn't cooperate, tough sh-t.
Are you for an attack on Sudan or North Korea? Canada is rumored to have terrorists within their borders, as are most European countries. Of course Iran and Syria. Where is your line in preemtive the preemptive sand? ("Harbor them", makes it sound like you are putting them up in a fancy hotel and feeding them, providing armed guards and such).
BTW, I did support Bush War I.
