Must have been another brother, hey? I found another Berg article at:

Where Nick is described as the only one in the family who voted FOR Bush!

Same brother. From your link:

his brother David believes he was the only member of the family who voted for George W. Bush. In December, he attended a two-day conference in Arlington, Va., on business opportunities in Iraq.

Note, we now know that at the two-day conference is when the Moore crew purportedly spoke with Nick Berg (one of many they spoke with?? Or one of a few?).

It wasn't that he said his brother wasn't much of a Bush supporter, but he downplayed Nick's supposed affiliation and made a point of saying he wasn't over there to help the Bush administration. Here is David from today's article:

Berg talks of Iraq's business potential on Michael Moore footage

Excerpt:

Given Moore's political leanings, David Berg said he was "really nervous" about what the footage of his brother might show. Nicholas Berg was in favor of bringing democracy to the Middle East, his family has said, but David Berg said his brother wasn't overtly political.

"He went to Iraq because he had certain beliefs about helping people in messed up situations, but it's not like he was trying to help the Bush administration," David Berg said.

Just an aside. When I clicked your link I was taken aback to see Sheherezade Faramarzi's byline. She was BIG on that "wedding party" story a week ago. Flogging and flogging until the horse had disintegrated and the truth was left standing, no thanks to the likes of her.
