well, depending on how you look at it, you can't. Most protocols require a tcp connection (2 way communication). So you have to fool them. If you bond the 2 interfaces together and use iptables to block all traffic in one direction on each interface it might work.

P.S.
2 A.M. in the morning and i might not be thinking straight.

[EDIT]
Now that i've had some sleep. I'm pretty confident that you can't do what you are trying to do. You can however, set certain traffic to each ISP
