Comment on Bush's speech
Three years after President Bush used Cincinnati's Union Terminal as the national forum for making his case for engaging Iraq, those in attendance ponder their support of the president and what's happened since. What do you think about Bush's speech?

Linked from this story:

Whether they favored or opposed going to war, many of the 800 who filed into the rotunda of the Museum Center at Union Terminal three years ago this week to hear President Bush make the case for invading Iraq now agree on one thing:

They could not have imagined then that, three years later, the war would still be going on.

"It's really hard to believe,'' said Pete Witte of Price Hill, a small businessman and former Republican candidate for City Council who was among the invited guests for the nationally televised speech.

"I felt he made a very good case for proceeding with the war," said Buck Niehoff, former Hamilton County Republican Party chairman and another of the guests. "We assumed we would go in, finish the job quickly and be done with it. But it didn't work out that way.''
