When what they should be doing is going after specific rights.

Which is exactly what's happening. The right in question is the right to get married.

Actually, I thought what the LGBT communities were really up in arms about was not only is it explicitly disallowed in some places, but even where it is allowed they don't get the same rights.  For example, Person A in the relationship has insurance through their job that could normally be extended to their spouse... except they're in a same-sex marriage, so the insurance company can legally say, "your spouse is not a spouse under our definitions."  Of course, like many things, this varies from state-to-state.  Same thing with taxes - as far as I know, same-sex couples are not allowed to file for returns jointly.
