Untrue. For one thing, it's obviously more politically expedient to oppose gay rights than to support them. Duh.
But you need only compare the platforms of the two parties during the last election. It is absurd to accuse the Democratic Party of the same excesses of homophobia as the Republican Party. You will recall that Clinton actually pressured Kerry to move further to the right on the issue of gay marriage and he refused.
