Good catch, jwalsh. Thank you.
I believe God appointed George W. Bush (a moral follower of Jesus Christ) after 8 years of a despicable, amoral, debauched Bill Clinton.
There were millions upon millions of Christians praying for the election of 2000 when algor was trying to steal the election from Bush. There were millions of us on our knees praying for God's mercy in that election, and millions of us who thanked Him when gore did not succeed.
Understanding God's Sovereignty and thanking Him for His mercy on America is not a sign of a "zealot." It is the sign of one who believes that God has had His hand on America, and that He uses leaders, good and bad, to accomplish His purpose for us. And the fundamental truth of that theology doesn't change just because any given leader doesn't do everything we want him to do.
In November 2008, I wondered if God had withdrawn His grace from America because we had abandoned Him, but I was wrong. I can see His hand of mercy on us now. I can see His confusing the minds of the enemy and showing mercy on America in the awakening of His people, and in the prayers of believers all over the world to save us from the tyranny that is upon us.
If my faith in the Sovereignty and mercy makes me a "zealot" in some people's eyes and a laughing stock in others, so be it.
Thank you, jwalsh, for your battle here to correct the falsehoods of the extremists. I hope this won't get you in trouble, but God bless you! :)

I’m sure there were quite a few Christians in Kosovo that probably wondered why this supposed moral follower of Christ supported their Muslim oppressors.
