A bromide ion is a bromine atom with charge of −1.
Compounds with bromine in formal oxidation state −1 are called bromides. This can include ionic compounds such as caesium bromide or covalent compounds such as sulfur dibromide.
Bromide compounds, especially potassium bromide, were frequently used as sedatives in the 19th and early 20th century. This gave the word "bromide" its colloquial connotation of a boring cliché, a bit of conventional wisdom overused as a sedative.
And as I stated above, I'm not gonna get into it and start fighting politics with people here again. Every argument you Bush apologists come up with, I have already been through. I don't care to re-hash old arguments. It will never serve a purpose. Politics on a board are nothing but dick-measuring contests. I'm not gay and therefore have no interest in seeing your dicks.
