Just because Bush got elected does not mean our country is coming down to Theocracy. You are being completely ignorant with your thought. If people vote because of there religious/moral beliefs that does not make our country a theocracy. So what you are indirectly saying or atleast the way i'm seeing it is that people should never vote for there religious beliefs.
If i'm wrong please correct!

First of all, if it was anyone BUT bush this year, i would have voted for them (assuming i could have voted (1 year off)) I don't vote via party, I vote on the Candidate. Kerry wasn't a good candidate, but Bush, IMO was worse.
I also didn't say that just because Bush got elected means we're in a theocracy. Although, it does make it a bit more obvious, in a sense. [ There's just no way a president could serve 4 years with an economy like it was/is, the unemploment rise because of outsourcing, which he supports, and the war., and be reelected. Look back at history. His father for one. It came down to moral votes. Thats what im getting at.
Voters should put aside their religious beliefs. They need to vote on the issues, not listen to the effing Church tell them what todo because God will strike them down if they don't, or they'll go to hell. Correct me if im wrong, but if you were running for president you wouldn't want the church saying that to against you now would you?
Im not ignorant.
