It amazes me that republican candidates are able to get a large majority of the "christian vote" because of the republican platform. Do I truly think Bush cares about homosexual marriage? Not at all. He only cares about re-election. A good example of this, is the fact that Bush is OK with civil unions for homosexuals, but not marriage...seems hypocritical to me.

I agree. Furthermore, why would I look at two issues, gay marriage and abortion and decide to vote for that candidate because opposing those two issues mean that they are a Christian? There are other characteristics and issues that are just as important to me as a Christian. If you are a Christian, you demonstrate your love of God in a number of ways. You will not simply give lip service to Christian values and beliefs, you will live them.
