You have to remember, Jon. The sort of Christians who apply faith to politics are the sort of Christians who simultaneously believe that this is such a Christian nation that the Christian God belongs in all spheres of public life (to the point that anything 'bad' that happens is the result of not toeing that line), and that Christians are the most persecuted, oppressed demographic group in American life.

That's a level of cognitive dissonance that's not worth arguing with.
