[1] Did you try the brackets?
<cfquery name="news" datasource="mydsn">
select news.title, news.subtitle, news.dated, news.id, news.article
from news
where news.complete = 1
and (news.article like '#form.keywords#%'
or news.subtitle like '#form.keywords#%'
or news.title like '#form.keywords#%'
or news.keywords like '#form.keywords#%')
order by news.dated desc
</cfquery>
[2] the LIKE operator is really slow.
