Republican or Democrat.... Looking for Love

I've had experience dating both Republican gays and Democrat Gay, and the one thing that sticks out in my mind is that  the only difference is on two issues. Marriage: the Replubicans support Civil Unions while the Democrats want the right of full Marriage. The second difference is economic, the Republicans being more fiscally "conservative". I haven't met a single gay republican that supports Bush on any platform. So why do we fight each other so much. We should be fighting for the same thing "EQUAL RIGHTS".  I don't give a crap what anybody calls it as long as I have the same rights as everyone else. Marriage is a religious term anyway, and since 75 percent of them fail why should we want to emulate them. Just give me equal rights and call it a "Civil Union" or a "Partnership", hell, I don't care if you call it "chicken nuggets" as long as I have equal rights!!!!
