I'm not going to give absolute loyalty to anyone. I prefer instead to think and wish more people would do the same.

The Democratic party, overall, is and will continue to be more supportive of equal rights than Republicans. Just watch and see how many times anti-gay legislation comes up in Congress over the next 2 years. Or go tell the Freepers what you think we should do to support equal rights and see how much respect you get from them.

We can't exclude any one of our principles, not equal rights and not enhancing social programs, because we are a big tent, a caolition. Most of us, hopefully, have similar beliefs, but they will never be identical. There has to be at least a little of something for everyone.

But if support for equal rights is the only Democratic principle with which you agree, you might find better rapport with the Log Cabin Republicans.
