Remember: this article reflects Georgia. "Military kin split on Bush"
When President Bush toured ground zero in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Donna Bramblett cried openly.

She liked that he mentioned God in his speeches. She was thankful she had voted Republican the year before.

This November will be very different.

"I am angry. I feel betrayed," said Bramblett, 41, a nurse from the small Emanuel County town of Adrian. "I won't vote for Bush again."

Bramblett plans to cast her ballot for likely Democratic nominee John Kerry, even though she and the Massachusetts senator are on opposite sides of many issues. As the wife of a National Guardsman, Bramblett cannot forgive President Bush for the war in Iraq.

4. True, Skittles
but for me, whatever works.

I'm just happy to see the tide turning -- regardless of its impetus.

5. Sometimes that's what it takes
to wake them up. Once awakened, look out.

6. "he mentioned God in his speeches"
..and this woman presumably is educated since she is a nurse!!! What can I say. This stupid mentality. Do people like this NOT get that a damn serial killer can be reciting the Bible while slitting your throat. Throwing around "God" in speeches is the #1 con trick in the world. The Bush crime family is anything but godly...why don't these morons take a look at what these people do and not how many times they can pack "God" into a sentence. Well, if hubby comes back in a body bag, maybe she can have some other right wing 'good person' say "God" over the casket!! This ignorant mentality of repuke = good and a few "god" words make them good people has to be changed.
