Trial for Bush protester begins Wednesday By JACOB JORDAN AP
COLUMBIA, S.C. - Protester Brett Bursey has been arrested for spray-painting 'Hell no, we won't go' on a Vietnam-era draft board and for burning the Confederate flag.
But his latest arrest for entering a restricted area during President Bush's visit more than a year ago may be the most important of his life.
That's because when his trial begins Wednesday, the 55-year-old Bursey who has been an activist since the 1960s, takes on the federal government.
