God is neither Republican nor Democrat (nor any other). God set the rules, and others follow those rules to varying degrees.
PRESIDENT W. BUSH:
Taliban were the many religious leaders of Afghanistan who also ran the government. It took time for them to reach a consensus because they didn't meet in a group, they traveled about the country. Nine days after 911 (September 20), the Taliban captured Al Qaeda leader, Osama Bin Laden, and his top aides and offered to turn them over to the US if the US could provide proof that they were terrorists. They wouldn't turn them over without proof because they felt that W. Bush was acting out of anger from the attack, and was apt to make rash decisions. At this juncture, the diplomatic move would be to negotiate with the Taliban to turn over the Al Qaeda to a neutral third party that was only interested in serving justice, not some wild revenge against the wrong enemy as W. Bush eventually did.
So, God: "Thou shalt not kill" Bush: War in Afghanistan against the Taliban (they were on our side), and then torture camps around the world (ship on the Indian Ocean, camps in Iraq, and X-Ray and Delta in Guantanamo (which has a sign in front about establishing justice and freedom)). All this was to torture false confessions to justify a war without basis.
I can assure you that God doesn't want war and torture camps, nor environmental damage (in love with oil mammon), etc.
So, though W. Bush said that he was going to end abortion (which he never did anything), and though W. Bush said that he was "fightin' evil" and fightin' the "Axis of Evil" he, himself, was evil for fighting and torturing the wrong enemy.
The war in Iraq killed 1,000,000 Iraqis (notice that the press didn't want to hurt war efforts so they never gave casualty reports. Rumsfeld said that no women or children were hit by collateral damage, though carpet bombs left 1/2 mile diameter craters near large cities.
God doesn't like lies and mass murder.
W. Bush, at the time, was not only the president of the United States, he was also the president of the Religious Right (only president to do this).
MIXING POLITICS AND RELIGIION:
Well meaning theist voters think that one party represents their interests more than the other party. But, there is a vast chasm between the goal of religion, and carrying out God's laws. This is why it is better to not mix religion with politics.
When King Henry VIII wanted to divorce (or chop heads of) his wives, he founded his own church (Anglican, Protestant), and insisted on leading it (against the advice of Sir Thomas Moore, his privy council and Lord Protector of Great Britain, now sainted). This resulted in daughter Bloody Mary chopping off the heads of over 150 Protestant preachers for refusing to wear Catholic robes. Then people were punished for not being Anglican under the next tyrant. This is why the United States opted for freedom of religion, and inherent was a law preventing the mixing of Church and State, insisting that one religion could not be respected over another by the government.
Now, various sects want political power, funding for religious schools (which would sap funding from public schools), and they want to decide who gets charity, and they want to dole it out (welfare). They want evolution banned from science classes, and they want creationism taught (at least with evolution....claiming that evolution, too, is a religious belief because it discusses how we were created).
Noble goals, all, but we must avoid the pitfalls of Henry VIII's dictatorship and harsh rule.
