      Anyone one see Jerk Joe the Plumber's comment? That he won't let "queers near his kids."
      -
      Hey Jerk Joe — there's about a 100% chance that you are friends with or are related to a gay person. What a jackass this man is.
      -
      I only hope Jerk Joe is seriously injured — and the doctor on call is gayer than Harvey Feinstein.

      Victory for some but defeat for over 70% of the American population who believe that marriage is between a male and a female.



    16. 16

      I love that Perez broke this before ANY of the major news outlets. LOL



    17. 17

      Boo, Boo, Booo! Say it ain't so.



    18. 18

      Fuck yea!



    19. 19

      that is too bad… GAY people have no morals… marriage was defined by GOD to be between a MAN and WOMAN…



    20. 20

      there is way more straight people then there will ever be gay… please people open your eyes realize this is wrong and VOTE against this…



    21. 21

      Why do closed-minded, ultra-conservative losers choose to frequent Perez's site? This makes NO sense to me.



    22. 22

      Cool!



    23. 23

      Great news…..onward march to equality, Take that and ur fake bits Ms. Prejeans. ha ha ha



    24. 24

      I've always been proud to be from New England, but now I'm EXTRA proud! wOOt wOOt!



    25. 25

      and cali hasn't passed it yet? lame. blame the evangelists and mormons! homosexuality is wrong just as native americans are descended from israelites who are cursed with red skin and the earth is thousands of years old and dinosaurs don't exist. use your brains idiots. WOOOT WOOT change has come!



    26. 26

      Wow - looks like a lot of people really give a shit Perez. Racking up those comments.



    27. 27

      GROSS!! I think I am going to stop reading this site…I come here for celeb gossip and it has turned more into a Gay site…pun intended…It's not normal to be gay quit acting like it is…Like I said before, ya'll are equivalent to pedophiles.



    28. 28

      Is it that we as gays want equality, or do want to force our way of live down their throats? I mean, isnt a choice that we made in life?



    29. 29

      Thank you Maine HOR!



    30. 30

      Way to go New England! There is a reason we are home to some of the best schools and intelligence.

      For all the posters talking about God's definition of marriage, a)many people in this country do not follow the word of God, because they do not practice religion/believe in God, which is perfectly okay, b)I didn't realize you knew God so well, and his guidelines on who to love? You people should be ashamed for discriminating.



    31. 31

      Re: buck – Thank goodness the largest demographic of the highly questionable 70% you claim will be dead soon. The oldest among us are the least interested in social progress.



    32. 32

      Re: Luv2surf – Please stop reading this site and PLEASE stop posting on it. Thank you.



    33. 33

      YAY MAINE! I LOVE MY STATE!!!



    34. 34

      Yay equal rights! wheeeee!!!!!!!11



    35. 35

      again none of the northern states matter. Good Luck trying to get gay marriage approved in the South!



    36. 36

      Re: conductenor –

      yeah. I'm an independent actually so I wouldn't say everyone's ultra conservative kind of like everyone's not extreme liberal either



    37. 37

      I find it funny that there are so many negative comments here, why are you reading Perez if you all hate gays so much? Seems like some sort of internal conflict. The world is changing haters, it's time for you to catch up. Equality for all!



    38. 38

      Re: kateyaya –

      ok quick lesson. no one ever said dinosaurs didn't exist? at least out of all of the churches I've been to say that they did? Maybe if you actually stopped stereotyping ppl you might learn something



    39. 39

      Re: LizardKinG – Why do you people read these blogs if you hate him so much!?????



    40. 40

      Re: hollyholly8 –

      the road to hell is wide/short while the road to heaven is long/narrow

      so go figure. the way I see it is this: two gay people can not naturally have a child. Nature in general is one male + one female='s babies not one man plus one man or one woman+ one woman+ a turkey baster. Nope doesn't work like that. Even if you don't believe in God anyone with 2 cents for a brain knows that its against the rules of nature to be gay. You can't continue a species that is based off of homosexuality

      but whatever this country has fucked up morals anyways



    41. 41

      YAY!!!!



    42. 42

      I for one love updates like this. What's it going to hurt learning about the states as well as the celebrities? Thank you Perez!



    43. 43

      How is this celebrity gossip, Perez? This is great and all but stick to your job.



    44. 44

      Re: Studmoose – I love your icon (drool), but I don't like your comment, lol….I'm from New England I have never every "boffed a Moose" (or been boffed - kinda hard for a female) nor have I viewed anyone else, for that matter. XD



    45. 45

      Hehe, I live in Maine :)



    46. 46

      Take that Miss California, you stupid slut.

      Gay marriage in United States and not in France !!! OMG my country it's so … ggrrr … I hate my country for this .



    49. 49

      Re: brandidid – Against the rules of nature to be gay? Then how do you explain animals who mate with members of the same sex? Or how homosexuality dates back thousands of years? Somehow, we're all still here, so it's a pretty sad excuse to say that it's about reproduction. What's so bad about two gay men getting married? In what way does it affect you? There are no facts whatsover in any of the four/five states that allow gay marriage that show threat to same sex marriage, so get off your high horse and have a heart. Gay people are people too, who deserve as much rights as you and me, heterosexual people. It's sick to think that people like you do not want someone who is gay to be equal to them.



    50. 50

      Congrats Darling! we're happy for ya ;)

      Yours truely,
      Bella x



    51. 51

      DC too!!!!
      Looks like Civil Rights are on the march … move over bigots!



    52. 52

      Yeah, if I hated Perez so much, I wouldn't come here. I would stick to some right wing, Christian agenda, hate site like Ann Coulter or Miss California. If you don't like what her writes… go somewhere else - but don't come in and complain, complain, complain.



    53. 53

      Makes me proud to be from the great state of Maine to know that if my brother wanted to get married he could! Time for more states to follow!!

      Re: amycat613 – You'll have to ask them…



    56. 56

      I'm ashamed of this country and the weak assholes that pass this crap.



    57. 57

      Re: amycat613 – "why do you people"…. wtf? who is you people?



    58. 58

      People using the word of "God" to support their opinions must have no idea to what extent they could not sound more idiotic. What kind of screw up is God to create gay people only to deprive them of basic rights? Certainly a God that I will not praise. If our country is honestly based on these foolish, ridiculous beliefs and sentiments, I'm ashamed to call myself an American.



    59. 59

      Re: saltlake801 – hey fucking ass hole i'm in salt lake too and i just want you to know that i hope you fucking die. i hope i can track you down and sodimize the shit out of you you fucking idiot get an education. it shocks me that people like you think that you are going to "Heaven" judgement in a sin you fucktard. you don't even know the rules of your own twisted religious background. GO TO SCHOOL.

      Re: Luv2surf – you are awsome!!!

      Re: b a t k i s s – shut up, you fag lover



    62. 62

      "Gays have no morals"? geez come to Las Vegas, immoral hetero's everywhere.. strip clubs, sex clubs, swinger joints, drunks, gambling, prostitutes.. give me a fucking break!!



    63. 63

      Re: Sistah Mary – amen sister



    64. 64

      Re: perez_alicious – I've said it before and I will say it again GAYS have NO MORALS,



    65. 65

      FUCK GAYS! FUCK MARRIAGE IS ONLY FOR MAN AND WOMEN,. EVEN A UGLY CREATURE LIKE YOU PEREZ DOESNT DESERVE IT,. THAT IS IF YOU GET SO LUCKY THAT YOU GET SOMEONE TO MARRY YOU SMELLY ASS



    66. 66

      Re: Studmoose – Re: Jaidyn79 – It's cool…I just thought you were saying that New Englanders (I'm one) boffed Moose, but if it was a play on your name, no biggie, that's cool and funny….love the Ash!



    67. 67

      I live in Maine, and I'm so happy.



    68. 68

      This is great, but as a Mainer, I know with signatures this will be put to a vote, hopefully in this state that allows cousins to marry, they could get their heads out of their asses, pass gay marriage and get on with it! Its beyond past time for this to be passed. I find it funny how people who hate gays so much around here seem to have a constant conversation ABOUT gays…hmmm Denial anyone. God doesn't Exist.. Just ask him.



    69. 69

      Re: saltlake801 – what does the population of more straight people have to do with this ?? There are more women then men too but men still have their rights! I also find it hilarious that you think gays are going to burn in hell but you are not??? god doesn't need you to judge for him and quite frankly I think you are undermining and offending god when you do just that by U deciding who will burn in hell, why don't we leave that up to him. and the gays are only the minority still because as sad as it is in 2009 there are many that are still afraid to come out because of people like you who think they should be doing gods job by judging others



    70. 70

      Equality for all…… What's next divorce any time like the hetero people now ;-)



    71. 71

      Re: Alliestp – Nobody cares… You do otherwise why you reading this anyways !



    72. 72

      for the comment about how gay people can't have children…

      what about a woman who is unable to conceive?



    73. 73

      God, just because I hate you so much I would vote the other way.

      YOU are the reason people don't like gay people.



    74. 74

      SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT BEING GAY IS A LEARNED EXPERIENCE, AND OTHERS SAY THAT GAYS ARE BORN WITH A WOMANS BRAIN. WHY? THEN IF THEY ARE BORN THAT WAY, DON'T THEY COME OUT WITH SOME SORT OF AN EXPERAMENTAL DRUG TO FIX THE ABNORMALITY. SUCH AS IN THE CASES OF SCHITZOS. (LITHIUM). PERSONALLY I HAVE NEVER KNOWN ANY STRAIT MAN WHO LIKES PEEN!!!!!!! A TRUE SEXUALLY BALANCED MALE WILL LOVE A FEMALE, AND NEVER MARRY A MAN…………………

      75

      Who cares? Bid deal. I'm tired of everything revolving around sexuality.



    76. 76

      sooooooooo proud to be from Maine right now



    77. 77

      I'm not gay but I know and love sooooooo many people who are and I am from maine so i'm really excited something is happening here! everybody needs to follow! ms. carrie prejean needs to really open her eyes and realize its the future!



    78. 78

      I love my good 'ol state.



    79. 79

      Re: lunar27 – good people should be ashamed to come out of the closet- its not natural, to be gay



    80. 80

      Re: conductenor – this is about celebrities not gay people so why cant we come here?????????????????

      Don't celebrate just yet. Buncha bigots & panderers are trying to put it out to public referendum.

      Re: buck – who cares if it's popular? If you don't believe in same sex marriage, then don't marruy someone of the same sex. That's as far as it goes, for you.



    85. 85

      As a dedicated pot head they should be legalizing mary j first :P
      Well not so much of a weedie head thur fri sat and sun only MWAHAHAHA



    86. 86

      That's such great news. Most of Europe recognises gay marriage - glad to see the US catching up.



    87. 87

      I agree with another Mainer on here. As much as I love my state and really want this to pass, I'm afraid that if it comes down to people voting, victory might not be so easily at hand. There's a lot of ignorant people in this state, but hopefully that will be over-powered by the awesome people. ^_^



    88. 88

      Right on!!



    89. 89

      MARRIAGE … is still between a man and woman. Call it what you want, Perez, in your militant homosexual words, but it's not a true marriage.

      Re: lunar27 – Mr. Lunar i wish u could see that you dont really have faith in God because you still doin men up the anal tube and that if you did you would stop your sins. I am not perfect but i know for a fact queers well burn……….. So please Repent you queer bate

      This is awesome! Equality for all! Never let anyone take control of your personal life and limit how you can love another! Congrats everyone.
