It's a good system (Voting by Faith) because no mater who wins it is the one the lord sent to be in charge of them.

Pretty much - that whole neofaith thing really is a shot in the dark.

One of the rationalizations for the illegal occupation of Iraq (and the murders of over one hundred thousand innocent Iraqi civilians) is that the United States is engaged in a struggle of "good versus evil". In spite of repeated heinous acts committed for years by the United States in the Middle East, including state terrorism resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, installation and/or support of ruthless dictators (i.e. Saddam Hussein, the Shah of Iran), and enabling the Israelis to commit genocide against the Palestinians, these pseudo-Christians have managed to convince many Americans that the US is "good" and the "terrorists" (i.e. the Resistance to US occupation in Iraq) are "evil". As the US government continues to rape the Middle East, Christo-Fascists slap "God Bless America" bumper stickers on their gas-guzzling SUV's actually believing that the Father, the Son, and/or the Holy Spirit would bless a nation governed by murderers, thieves and thugs.
Yes, I can visualize a Christian God sitting on his throne in the kingdom of heaven gazing down upon humankind. As he surveys humanity, he "wisely and judiciously" decides to answer Jane Morgan's prayer for a 2005 Hummer to replace her two year old Navigator. After all, he can't have Jane driving a "jalopy" to worship him on Sundays, now can he? Spying eight year old Mahmoud, a Palestinian in Gaza, God decides to let him die of malnutrition because he is not a Christian, and in fact is an "evil" Muslim who could become "terrorist" someday. The late Jerry Falwell, who do did not appear to be struggling with malnutrition, would be most pleased with his Maker.

Neoconservatism is NOT a religion. Anyone with even rudimentary knowledge of American politics knows this. We vote based on logic. I realize that is an alien concept to many people.

I think you have us confused with the idiots from Florida in the 2000 election who thought they were voting for Gore and punched Buchanan instead. You see once you have been dumbed down enough to vote for the liberal democrat you lose the brain power needed to do so

I think it was the Democrats in Florida that hard a hard time finding the correct "chad".

You mock what you do not understand. The quiet strength of men of faith led them to Iraq to lay down their lives in defense of yours.

Maybe thats why they push it all the way through, instead of leaving it dangling? Nyuck, Nyuck, Nyuck!
