  1. 1

    SINCE FATSO MARIO CAME OUT… HE HAD A CHANGE OF HEART! HE WAS RIGHT WITH THE MISS USA DEBACLE YOU CAUSED!!



  2. 2

    I THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOSSIP SITE FAT ASS!!!!



  3. 3

    I'm all about equal rights… but I'm also all about getting my daily dose of gossip, and Perez… this isn't gossip.



  4. 4

    I would suggest the biggest reason for his reversal is the GOP's loss in 2008.



  5. 5

    Uptight, outright, extreme right conservatives are a dying breed for they refuse to evolve!
    .



  6. 6

    because of you Fucktard!



  7. 7

    The worlds full of hypocrites you should know your one of them.



  8. 8

    We have the right to change our mind? It actually goes to show you he's not a conservative and the fact you can see two sides to anything shows you are educated and not following a party.



  9. 9

    B/c after that hate crusade against miss ca, you turned ppl off to your cause…



  10. 10

    That jerk off just wants to jump on the publicty band wagon.



  11. 11

    He is still not opposed to gay marriage as he stated this again the other night. He is simply rightly against the way that you acted and spoke of her for diagreeing with your opinion as more than half of America does. Please note that I am not opposed to gay marriage either but people like you who publicly throw a hissy fit are why some are so opposed to the idea. Calling her a "stupid bitch" because she agrees with the majority of her state is where you went wrong.



  12. 12

    Like I said more than a few times. I voted for gay marriage and had to convince my husband and mother-in-law to do it, and they did. I have changed my mind. The more discussion, the more research I've done and I've seen the equality in civil unions. The discussion backfired for me. I got throught the propaganda and the rhetoric of h8, or bigotry etc. none of which I am.



  13. 13

    Mario is a hypocrite. Bill is allowed an oppinion as you are allowed yours. As well as Carrie is allowed hers! I support same sex marriage but you are a disgrace to gays.



  14. 14

    he's just as bad as the left wing commentators also. why don't you ever post shit about those loud mouth losers?



  15. 15

    I don't believe in gay marriage. hate mail me all u want lol. its between a man and woman. and no one can even take marriage seriously this dang age, why is everyone tripping, then u want to take this "gay" activist seriously.lol

    i will never understand how anyone can give this psycho any credit

    New Hampshire Set to Approve Same-Sex Marriage -NY Times



  18. 18

    It's his opinion and remember ~~ he's older. My Mom probably doesn't agree on gay marriage either. Like I said. It's an age thing “““ or a religious thing.
    Thankfully, I'm not old or religious! If any two people want to get married and be miserable~~ Than MORE power to them I say!! and that's THAT!!! :)



  19. 19

    Re: LaDiva – Not really! 4 more states have legalized it in the last few months so you're WRONG. Nice try though!



  20. 20

    He didn't care about the issue in 2002 b/c it didn't seem possible. Now that it looks more and more possible every day, his true colors are showing.



  21. 21

    BECAUSE YOU TURN OFF LOTS OF PEOPLE! YOUR STUPIDITY AND FOOLISHNESS AND HIPOCRICY! YOU HATEFUL AND OBSSESIVE UGLY PIG,.



  22. 22

    Marriage is passing not because minds are being changed, it's democrat ruled and they're stepping up to the plate with their agenda. The people voting probably haven't changed their mind, they're just now getting to vote. Duh!



  23. 23

    He probably changed his mind because of the "triad marriage" segment that Fox news just had on. . . it's a three way marriage and people for it are screaming "equality" too. Sooooo. . . where does it stop?



  24. 24

    Have you ever received a mean email or instant message? Have you ever sent one? This is called cyberbullying. A cyberbully uses the Internet, cell phone, or other device to send or post text or images to try to hurt or embarrass another person



  25. 25

    Re: SWEETPIECE! – just read it, after changes to the wording… wonder what?



  26. 26

    It is true. If you redefine for one group you have to redefine for all. Then the reasoning is supposed to go, "if not you're a bigot a hater not pro-choice yada yada yada…



  27. 27

    I really dislike Bill O'Reilly and disagree with almost everything he says.
    However, sad to say, he has the highest rated of all cable news shows, so he always panders to his conservative right demographic.
    So it makes sense that he back-peddled and spews hate & inaccuracies about gay marriage - and any other issue that keeps his TV ratings high.
    It's his job, unfortunately.



  28. 28

    Re: jaycie

    I don't know Jaycie, but why does it stop at a man and a woman? Should never have let that first Man and Woman marry. Look at the slippery slope they created!



  29. 29

    There really are all kinds of entities that should be family which is why you musn't hate the Mormon polygamist (sexual orientation in Wikipedia by the way) and their "life style choice." Don't h8! Also don't h8 heterosexual Christians and their "lifestyle choice" of what defines their family! Don't h8 anyone and their CHOICES or ORIENTATIONS, RELIGIONS OR IT'S BIGOTRY YOU KNOW.



  30. 30

    Re: SWEETPIECE!
    Yup, and New York is not far behind.



  31. 31

    It doesn't STOP at a man and a woman, it STARTED at that. Way back when the only way to have a "family" was for a man and a woman to create one. THAT'S why it started there. Not a hard one to figure out.



  32. 32

    Bill O'Reilly was still #1 when he held a different point of view. Okay?



  33. 33

    Where's the audio of that interview? Liberals make up all kinds of shit in their efforts to destroy conservatives (which will never happen). Don't believe the nonsense that the liberal media puts out there stating that the Republican Party is shrinking. If anything, we are growing and getting stronger because people are sick of hateful liberals in the media and in Hollywood!



  34. 34

    A hell of a lot of people are starting to have a change of heart since it started getting rammed down their throat. Of course it deosnt help having the fag on steroids whining bitch that is Perez as their self appointed spokeman. I never used to care at all, now I wish you'd all just fuck off, and yes Ellen I mean you too. The Gay propaganda machine is the new communism, trying to control what people think and say and making everyone scared to say what they really feel.



  35. 35

    Bill O'Reilly is a fucking asshole gasbag lunatic.



  36. 36

    The gay mafia has made it very hard for people to support them destroy religion. If gays wanted rights, they should fight for them. Right now, all they do is whine and cry about not being able to get married. If gays are allowed to get married, I do not think they will stop there. They are on a path to destroy religion, morals, and ethics and will continue their fight till everyone in America is gay….or pretend to be so that they too are not publicly condemned for having a thought of their own.



  37. 37

    Re: tick_tock_tick_tock – States are passing gay marriage without having the majority of people vote on it. What we have are politicians who are making decisions for their states.



  38. 38

    Re: aaabbbccc Exactly. Too much is thrown by "celebrities" and not enough into realizing what marriage really is. Marriage is a religious institution - a word that was created for a union between man and woman. As I've always said, if it doesn't happen in a traditional church (regardless of sex), it's not a marriage. Some people take pride in the English language. Too many Americans dumb down everything, eventually we will all be (flashback warning) Marclar's. Because everything and every word needs to be equal. Civil unions are EXACTLY the same benefits as marriage and are actually more PC.



  39. 39

    Re: plastics – He is still not opposed to gay marriage as he stated this again the other night. He is simply rightly against the way that you acted and spoke of her for diagreeing with your opinion as more than half of America does. Of course, Perez says whatever he wants to (forget that in the article, he doesn't exactly agree with LEGALIZING gay marriage), so that people will jump on the propaganda bandwagon. Instead of watching the show, people would rather be sheep and get outraged over things people didn't even say. Easier to let someone else think for them, than do it themselves - otherwise - how did Obama get in office?

    Re: mattvoyager
    Matt, maybe you're feeling somewhat threatened that things are changing .. looks like America is finally stepping into the 21st century.
    Maybe that scares you a little bit? Change isn't easy.



  41. 41

    Directly, from the original article that references his thoughts - "The problem with homosexuals is, there's a feeling among some leaders that they have to force people to accept them." Sounds familiar eh? Another quote to he wouldn't oppose gay marriage?: "If you can get that changed, I'm not going to jump….." The article curiously is missing an entirety quote - what else did he say that they have the need to cover up? It was the direct answer to the entire article. That's right, it's conveniently missing to make their point….

    Re: Shastamagic – Gay marriage is a LEGAL and CIVIL rights issue NOT a religious one :D If you don't believe in gay marriage then don't marry a gay person!



  44. 44

    You know the quote is really easy to find:

    Look, I couldn't care less, to tell you the truth…. You want to get married? Knock yourself out. Go to Vegas. Have a good time. If you can get that changed, I'm not going to jump up and down and say I think it's wrong, because I don't.

    Bill O'Reilly is and entertainer…he changed his tune because it's good for ratings with the crazy fanatic religious right wingers. What's new? I mean, he does work for FAUX news…it's a given. He's just like any other average hypocritical, manipulative, lying, greedy, crazy-ass Republican with no morals! Thank God the majority finally spoke up and voted the Republicans out!!!!

    Heterosexual loving relationships homosexual loving relationships will forever be DIFFERENT. They are not the same. PERIOD. Neither are men and women, Boy Scout, Mens rooms etc. A lesbian couple will always need a man (male sperm) and a gay male couple will always need a female egg. Period. In the beginning, before scientists, the only couples that could procreate would have been heterosexual ones. You can't change facts or reality.



  46. 46

    When things are different they have different needs and different rules. People of different ages have different but equal rules for soccer teams, even at the grade school levels. The rules are designed to better fit the needs of different groups.



  47. 47

    Equality in diversity doesn't mean having the EXACT same thing. Equal implies more than one. 1/2 = 2/4



  48. 48

    It is funny that liberal Hollywood maily discusses marriage as "a piece of paper" that has nothing to do with how much people love each other. Yet, they are acting like it's so much more than a piece of paper now. Where is the it's "just a piece of paper" now?



  49. 49

    Get your equal rights through civil unions, which by the way are prohibited to heterosexuals who don't want marriage in some places.

  50. MP says – reply to this

    If you watched his show you'd know he's not against gay marriage. He says it would have no impact on his life personally but he thinks it would open the door for triad marriages, etc. He also says it should be put up for a vote by the people to decide on, and not have it decided by judges.

    Shasta # 36: You have made me believe in alien life forms. What planet are you from?



  52. 52

    Um.. my guess is that this fool will jump on anyones wagon for some free publicity. He's like you only worse. Take lessons boo. O' Reilly is a bitch in heels and you are still in flats.



  53. 53

    Take 2 different people

    Person 1 can marry who they like who they choose

    Person 2 cannot marry who they like who they choose

    Is that equal? No it is not.

    Civil Unions are not equal to marriage.

    If you don't want Gay Marriage then don't Marry a Gay Person



  54. 54

    NEWSFLASH Perez: PEOPLE CAN CHANGE. IT'S BEEN 7 YEARS, PEOPLE CHANGE AND YOUR RECENT FIGHT WITH MISS CALI TO PROMOTE YOUR PERSONAL AGENDA HAS CERTAINLY PUT A LOT OF PEOPLE AGAINST YOU. WAKE UP, FAT BOY!!!



  55. 55

    Well Bill Oreilley is a conservative republican bigot to the core,what he likes to do like lots of these fake hypocritical fascists/fundies is pretend they are for less gov and for free speech and for everyones rights,but thats all fine and well in a general terms. When Oreilley thought that gay marriage had no chance in hell of passing he was all on board with the fake libertarian streak they like to parade around when it suits their agenda,but when it actually became legal in some states and almost passed by popular vote in California his true big brother all government control side came out. And thus began his posturing for his fox News aging demographic who are total bigots. Nobody ever called Oreilley moral,consistant,noble and fair,hes a big mouth bully who is a bigot and very simple minded, Where Oreilley gets more complicated is when he and FOX pretend that they are centrists,libertarians, and for less government while pushing the agenda of those that are exactly the opposite.



  56. 56

    HE HAS NOT SAID HE AGAINST GAY MARRIAGE!!!! LISTEN/WATCH/READ WHOLE QUOTES WHY DON'T YOU!? O'REILLY SAYS ALL SORTS OF THINGS THAT SOUND CRAZY IN ISOLATION, BUT ARE ALMOST ALWAYS A SUGGESTION OF A PINT OF VEIW - NOT HIS.



  57. 57

    Re: Its not your rights on the line – its like this, gay right are not the same as normal rights. u r asking fer sumthing that is not part of da rights r 4fathers granted us. but it is what we, your fellow people will offer yous. if yous will accepts its. take it as yous civil union ats first and lets the years blend it intos one.
    hells i wills fuck nethang, gay or str8t, mes and my 14 enches luzes ta fuck



  58. 58

    3 reasons.

    1. The California Supreme Court going against the will of the people from the 2000 election, really pissed people off. When votes dont count anymore our country is in trouble. If this didnt happened gay marraige would have been passed this past election

    2. Gavin Newsome and his "whether you like it or not speech" was just horrifing.

    3. The unnecessary outrage and bashing of Miss California.

    I used to be for Gay Marriage until the recent actions of the Gay Community. Fuck em'



  59. 59

    he only does it for ratings
    i doubt he means most of the shit he says



  60. 60

    Perez. Maybe people are just sick of u with over and over GAY SHIT. Don't care whose gay, whose not. U need to let this go and take it out on ur butt buddy…………………hard.



  61. 61

    Gay marriage is a LEGAL and CIVIL rights issue NOT a religious one If you don't believe in gay marriage then don't marry a gay person!

    Re: tick_tock_tick_tock

    There is no "right to marriage" mentioned in the Consitution. Just as there is nothing in the Constitution about a "right to an abortion".



  62. 62

    Re: Its not your rights on the line – Marry or not marry "it's just a piece of paper" you can get equal rights under the law. No need to marry or redefine a heterosexual institution brought about because it still takes a man and a woman to make a being.



  63. 63

    Marriage is a "piece of paper" that has no bearing on two peoples love. Civil unions will make sure we have equal protection. Period.



  64. 64

    I can't believe in this day and age, people getting married that are of the same sex is even an issue. Why are genitals more important love? Jesus.



  65. 65

    I saw him on TV once. He looked old and gross.



  66. 66

    I havent watched Fixed news — Im not a racist, segregationist



  67. 67

    Re: knowitall Wow, you listen to liberal media spew hate on O'Reilly, when you've just almost verbatim said exactly what liberals say - which is contradictory to what O'Reilly actually says. Common theme - put the blame on someone else, anyone they can criminalize or subjugate to stupidity. You espoused the tired old argument, when O'Reilly's views aren't even what was said. Of course, it's better to listen to liberal media bash him, than actually take 2 seconds to listen to his OWN words and get educated. He's an independent that has opinions that are far off of conservatives. Just because he doesn't think we should be spending into oblivion doesn't make him Republican.
