I don't see what the bipartisan bit has to do with anything. Although bigotry based on religioius motivations is certainly more common among Republican lawmakers than Democrats, it hardly follows strict partisan lines.
There are a lot of people on both sides of the aisle who embrace bigotry because of their religion. I think that helps make my point. Clearly religion isn't the only thing that drives these people to do what they do, but it is certainly a factor for many.
