Re: James – That remark gave me a happy chuckle.
stay the fuck out of politics perez. you're a fucking moron.
they're colleagues and he had permission
seriously, you like hillary, we get it.
when you do this shit you're no better than fox news.
fuck fox news and fuck you, you fucking moron
He is such a phony. Look at him read that plagiarized shit off his manuscript and real it like he is channeling his own powerful emotions. I call BULLSHIT.
CLINTON '08!!!!!!!!
It's now only a matter of time before the rest of the country wakes up to this lying, deceitful Politician…he is laughing at us all…making a mockery of our POLITICAL system…HE MAY BE THE MEDIA'S DARLING BUT HE DOESN'T FOOL ME!
And the Bush Administration has lied for 7 1/2 years. Fight a different battle. Clinton AND Obama are BOTH superior in anything they do over the current trash. It's like comparing Ann Hathaway to Mushy Fartone.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
hahhahahaah… I always thought he was just a bag of hot air — it turns out he's not even a legitimate one!! When your #1 offering to the public is rhetoric, it should at least be your own.
It really bugs me he does that - it is totally not cool - proving Hillary is the smartest most competent and apparently with the most integrety too
ok perez i thought i was a huge fan of yours butopbviously not, you are making stuff up!
yes, these speeches are very similar..BUT HE HAD PERMISSION!
if only you would point out all the things hillary has done worse than this…racist remark? just cause you aren't for barack doesn't mean you have to smash him for something that is a complete mistake….he has permission. this is false, there was no plagiarism involved
Why does it matter? Your political posts are incredibly bias, Perez…
No speech is written by the candidates, and it doesn't matter who said them first or who's saying them now; what matters is the meaning and purpose behind them.

PEREZ,
I dont think you are posting all this anti-Obama shit out of true hatred for Obama
-
-
-
-
I think you are posting it out of resentment that he is KICKING HILLARY'S ASS!!! You feel like once you state you support her, you have to go all the way, even if it means forcing yourself to believe things you dont, and write things you dont mean.

A few weeks ago Barack was neck and neck with Hillary in your mind. Hell, a few days ago you posted those shirts and said you would be fine with either Clinton/Obama or Obama/Clinton.

Stop being so petty! Grow up!
Perez, stop licking Hillary's asshole. You're one biased motherfucker, aren't ya?
Re: James – lol asshole.
very surprising he would plagiarize a speech. Not. What's next? Not pledging allegiance to this country… oh wait a minute he has already done that.
Big surprise there. There's nothing original about this guy. He needs to get some more experience so maybe he can come up with his own lines. People need to realize what a fraud he is.
Perez - NONE OF YOUR READERS WANT TO HEAR YOU BASHING OBAMA. You're losing readers by doing this - formerly loyal readers who now are getting really turned off your site.
Perez, stop hating on Barack. Sounds like you're getting a reality check that your bitch Hill aint gonna make it
Perez, you're a biased, ignorant fool perpetuating lies. Watch the real news, would you? Stick to lying about celebrities, and stay away from politics. You'd think a flaming queen like yourself would promote any and all Democratic candidates.
#72 "Just because he had permission it is ok?" Yes, it is. It's not like he was murdering someone and someone gave him permission to do it. Get over it.
Perez–why are you bashing your own party? How is this any different from having a speech writer? It is not plagarism if someone has permission. You need to think more critically about what you post. While I am a Barack supporter, I do not bash Hillary because I just want a Dem in office.
oh please - the mans given how many speeches over the last 4 months??? So WHAT if his speech writers copied this one???
Fuc* you Perez…I am seriously going to stop reading your blog. Stick to the meaningless gossip please.
go die fatass.
I can't believe they're breaking this non-story during the Wisconsin and Hawaii primaries. I hope Hillary loses them both. Plagiary is when you steal somebody's words, see #1 for more on that. If Hillary is going to misrepresent the truth like this now, when she's campaigning, what's she going to do in office? Damn, I've had enough lies, eight years of George "Saddam has WMDs and is allied with al-Qaeda" Bush and eight years of Bill "I didn't have sex with that woman" Clinton, I can't take someone who says this is plagiary! I just can't! Christ almighty, McCain might be a doddering old neocon puppet who sings "Bomb Iran" like he belongs on the short bus, but anything is better than dealing with this sh*t! I don't want to go to war with Iran, we'll lose, we'll kill innocent people, we'll justify the Islamic hardliners' rhetoric, and besides we're already bankrupt, but I can't take this BS anymore!!!! I'll vote Republican for the first time in my life, I swear to god, instead of putting up with more of this underhanded Clinton crap.
Um, in the words of Deval Patrick…. I'd like to say "No comment".
Letting that clown be president is like my 5 year old becoming Principlal of his school.
What a joke.
Re: Myriam C Webster – OBUMMER IS SUCH A TURD, SUCH AN IDIOT !!!! Wouldn't you agree Myriam ?
Dear Perez:
Please stay out of politics, you suck at it.
Thanks
Is this really the best Hillary's team can do to unseat his lead? I think its interesting that right now WI and HI are voting for him. So thats another 2 states. But yeah, him saying the same thing his friends say is totally what's gonna wreck the country. K sure.
there is something fishy about that guy
oh, shut up, perez!
It is out of control that you post so much biased shit on something people look to for (granted pathetic) news. Post stuff about voting. NOT who to vote for. Influencing people like that will not get you more views or more publicity you fat fucker. Endorsing a candidate on a public forum like this is cheap.
Re: What the fuck people? – In the case you mentioned, it would not be okay since you would be getting a GRADE for it. Obama is just giving a speech. And dont tell me that he's getting "votes" from his speeches, because if youre stupid enough to base your vote on one or two speeches you heard, then you shouldnt be allowed to vote at all. Speeches contain IDEAS, everyone has IDEAS, and if someone wants to use my IDEA with my PERMISSION that is OKAY.
Maybe Deval Patrick should run for president
Seriously Perez, this is poor, poor "journalism" on your part. I understand you have an agenda, but you really need NOT lead those who aren't smart enough to figure this stuff out on their own, astray.
This isn't plagarism. My GOD, he's not writing an 8th grade term paper. JFK's "Ask Not What You Can Do.." line was also borrowed from what is one of the greatest political speeches of all times.
Please, please if you are going to insist on "reporting" political matters, get it right.
HIS RESPONSE
Obama: Now hold on a second—I have written two books, wrote most of my speeches, so I think putting aside the question that you just raised in terms of whether my words are my own I think that would be carrying it too far. Deval and I do trade ideas all the time. And, you know, he's, you know, occasionally used lines of mine and I at a JJ dinner in Wisconsin used some words of his. And, you know, I would add that I know that Senator Clinton on occasion has used words of mine as well. And, I don't think that, you know, that's really the kind of stuff that the workers here are concerned about. What they're concerned about whose is actually going to make sure that they got jobs here in the United States that pay a decent wage, who is going to ensure that we are providing opportunities for young people to go to college, and who is going to provide health care to people in need. So, you know, I'm happy to give Deval credit as I give to a lot of people who are spurring all kinds of ideas. But I think that it's fair to say that everything that we've been doing and generating excitement and the interest that people have had in the elections is based on the core belief in me that we need change in America. And that's been heartfelt and that's why I think it's been so effective.

CHECK FOR YOURSELF. go obama
Hillary is grasping at straws. The MA govenor wants him to use the words and has said so. Such a waste of time.
He totally creeps me out. Everyday I'm seeing more proof. He seems shady!
This is pathetic. Tell us how much Clinton '08 is paying you.
Perez, I think it's horrible that you're trying to influence voters when you have very little knowledge about what is actually going on in the election. Every sort of election related post you put up is completely biased and usually very untrue/taken out of context. Stick to your day-job and continue to talk about celebrities. GO BARACK!
I voted for Hill and you are really starting to piss me off with this shit! Do you think that maybe they share the same speech writer??? You're just showing your lack of understanding for the whole political process. These candidates travel all over the place and talk which means they hire people to write speeches for them. Imagine what the world would think if they knew. Oh wait the only one that doesn't know is YOU. Just stop already!
If Obama had permission, why wouldn't he say something like, "As my friend Deval Patrick said, …". It's very suspicious. I don't think young people today realize the implications of plagiarism. They come from the generation where media piracy is not even considered an offence.
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ARE REPORTING. this is unsubstantiated, and more importantly, if we end up with McCain we are all royally effed.
Two things:
1) Same speechwriter
2) Old News.
P.S.- Hillary is over…try picking a winner next time Perez.
Hillary 08
Hillary 08
Hillary 08
Hillary 08
Hillary 08
Its all about change….oh wait Obama plagiarised that too - WHEN ARE YOU PEOPLE GOING TO WAKE UP.
The only thing going for this once respectable man was his words….now what does he have? stolen policies thats what!!!
Go check your facts Obama supporters…..this is not just coining phrases
and Hillary isn't loosing!
If we elect Barack, we are in trouble. Black people have not earned the right to be in the White House. 3/5 black men have committed a crime or are serving time in jail. Read Bill Cosby's book. And his wife is totally ghetto, she does not even speak well and is tacky. It probably doesn't matter anyway somebody will kill his ass.
"the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author"
yeah, he had permission. So I would appreciate it if you would stop stirring up shit for no reason… every time Hillary and Hillary's people do this, it actually makes me like her less. A few months ago, I was excited to vote for a Democrat no matter what, and the more Hillary's people bring up this kind of petty stupidity…. and the more often Bill Clinton SPEAKS, I become less enthusiastic about the idea of having to vote for her in November if she wins.
poor guy, he copies everything, please don't copy fidel castro or che guevara, GO MCCAIN YOU ARE THE ONLY HOPE FOR THIS WORLD. SALUDOS DESDE MEXICO. OK
ya ya im sure he had permission. hes a terroritst
Perez, I understand that you are a big supporter of Hillary Clinton's, but you are being completely biased towards her.I have never seen you mention anything negative about her on this site, such as her stealing lines from Obama which includes " YES WE CAN, CHANGE." and more.
Seriously Perez. Get off of Obama’s nut sack. He had permission to use the speech for friggin crying out loud. Who, in politics, doesn’t get their speeches from someone else anymore? Why do you try as hard to report negative news on Clinton? Your friggin blog couldn’t hold all the dirt on that bitch. FEK! For once there is a Man that can lead this country properly and you are trying to fek it up!

Re: Myriam C Webster – Fuck you! Its bigots like you that make the world hate Americans! We are not about discriminating on the basis of religion, or anything for that matter! EVER HEARD OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT?? FREEDOM OF RELIGION?? If you love your country so much, why not take pride in the ideals which our Constitution stands for!! IF Barack was a Muslim, which he is NOT, he should be free to practice his religion and do so without being hated! If every impression you get about a Muslim is from the media, you have a lot of homework to do!
I think what's even more sad is that Obama isn't nearly as good at these speeches as Deval Patrick is. He even messed up the lines.
Sad.
Re: R – AMEN
that picture was doctored dumbace!
deval endorsed barack and thus has backed him up with these allegations of "plagiarism".
so whats the big deal. its not a term paper.
Carack Obama smokes Crack again, gets BlowJob again.
except deval patrick himself completely endorsed obama's use of his words and said he didn't even care that he wasn't credited.
the clinton campaign is far dirtier for using these types of smear tactics.
The video is the 2nd example (right now) that shows he is using someone's else's material. He is not original! Thanks for posting Perez - you're my hero. Lots of love your way tonight for standing up and telling the truth about this person. Someone has to.
He had permission…..we can all learn things from others….there is no wrong in that….quit trying to find all of the bad things about people and try to find some good in people
Perez, seriously, get a life. Stop trying to pass yourself off as a journalist. You are so biased. You fail to mention the facts. Has Barack's "friend" Deval Patrick said that Barack was plagiarizing him? The only people to say that are the desperate people in Hillary's campaign…she's losing, so now they're picking at straws.
You've just shown everyone how ignorant you are. Keep on putting stories up about Britney Spears…they're a little more on your level.
Perez, we get it..you like Hillary. How many fucking times do you have to fucking bash Barack you fat fuck? Trying to get people worked up to get more press since no one cares about you anymore? Oh wait….you told us Castro died. Silly me, you're not reliable.
funny thing is this clip cuts it off before obama says, "here is a line taken from my good friend deval patrick"…you and everyone else on hrc's side is getting desperate.
from now on please do a little research before you post these smears.
this just in…obama steals JFK idea as he essentially asks, "ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country… stay tuned for updates regarding possible borrowed FDR ideas that obama may be using as well… get a f'n grip mario.
STOP PERPETRATING THIS BULL****. HILLARY IS A CHEAT AND A WAR MONGER!!!
HOPE IS WHAT WE NEED!!!!
Okay enoug PEREZ.get over it you just won a fucking lawsuit where you were VISUALLY palgerizing LOL you were taking & probaly still are pictures from other news medias & using them for YOUR site. Hows about you dig up some dirt on Hilary… Oh you would need a back hoe for all the dirt you find for her!
Stop bashing Barack YOU as a so called MINORITY as a LATINA/LAINO should have better taste in politicians girlfriend!!!!!!!!!
listen fat bitch. keep contributing to a losing campaign. money well wasted you stupid ignorant fuck. a majority of shit you post on your "blog." any of that shit original? any intelligent person can see through the clinton campaign's smoke. the obama campaign and his supporters refuse to let the old school try to influence the new school. we're too far ahead to look back at the clinton's and their slick tricks. sickening fuckers. oh, he used some of his friend's and colleague's speech . . .boo hoo. grow up! so childish. and yes, calling perez a fat fuck is childish. but it is true.
That's because he does not have enough experience as a politician, PEOPLE!Big deal he has more commercial and celebrity endorsements. That doesn't matter when it comes to running a country or how to run a country.
It's a small issue, but if he had permission, and didn't cite said permission, he's misleading the people, and it's therefore as bad as if he just lifted it sans permission.
Any academic would tell you that.
um…seriously did clinton pay you?! Or are you mad because you are supporting a LOSING candidate? Obama es el mejor candidato. Si Se Puede!!!
This is funny. I like both Obama and Hillary. I am still loving Hillary.
HAHA what a dumb shit….. Hillary 08……Here we come!
Okay, first of all what's up with that guy calling himself God? If Obama did have permission then good for him. But if he is going to do the same with our country, then maybe he can borrow or reuse George Bush's "changes". Go Hillary! Oh and by the way Perez is not bashing Obama, bashing Obama would be calling him a *d*ck or a b*t*h( even though he is a guy).. Which is what a lot of people called Hillary, so take your own advice.
Well, of course, Obama supporters will see nothing wrong with ANYTHING that Obama says or does. Obama could say the sky is purple and his supporters would find some way to defend it. So, what do we tell all these high school and college kids writing papers? It's okay to use someone else's words without quoting them, as long as they know you're going to quote him. I don't think their English professor would buy that. Man, I can't wait until the general election, if Obama is the Democratic nominee. Republicans are going to have a field day tearing this guy apart. I used to like Obama, but, ever since Oprah's endorsement, people have been treating the guy like he was born in Bethlehem; and worse, even he's beginning to believe all the hype about himself.
oh my god..they are friends who share ideas. it's not plagarism. check your facts before smearing your crap.
BARACK OBAMA is a phony.
HE DOESN'T SOUND THE CANDIDATE OF CHANGE TO ME, IT'S LITERALLY THE SAME OLD THING!
And then he immediately footnoted Patrick, "Don't vote your fears, I'm stealing this line from my buddy, Deval Patrick, who stole a bunch of lines from me when he ran for the governorship, but it`s the right one. Don`t vote your fears, vote your aspirations."
For a man whose campaign relies heavily on speeches and words, this is not good.
CLINTON '08!
Amazing how all Hilary can do is try to make Obama look bad. I guess it's time for some more of her fake tears now. Hilary is PATHETIC and Perez you are a stupid fucking butt fucker for supporting a piece of shit like her!@
Re: Shani –
Hey Shani did your mom drink when she was preggers or just did the METH & HEROIN? I will be glad when they stop letting CRACK WEHORES give birth to kids like YOU!
Wow; Billary is really getting desparate…..kinda sad……….
Propaganda!
SAME SPEECH DIFFERENT DAY.
So much for being such a different campaign so full of ethics.
His fluffy speeches were all he had going for him.
And his wife, geez, never been proud of her country until her husband started running for president?! Makes me sick.
People do yourself all a favor and do your own research as Perez only reports what he wants you to hear as he is a Hillary Clinton supporter. If you go Fox News, CNN, or other true news outlet not a celebrity blog, it is clearly quoted by Obama and Patrick that they are friends and consult one another. Obama also gave credit to Patrick at other speeches but Clinton campaign is doing everything to post negative media prior to election days. Has anyone else seen that Clinton has stolen Obama's "yes we can" and "fired up and "ready to go"? Obama is now focusing on exciting voters on America and speaking about issues. Clinton family has a history of whitewater, extramarital affairs, fundraising issues including many contributors being at the legal max, and multiple scandals if you do Google search and kept up with history. Perez stick with Britney, Paris, things you know. Politics isn't your thing. How many times do your readers need to tell you to stop with this nonsense if you aren't going to properly report on ALL candidates and issues?
EVEN if Obama had Deval's permission - it's STILL not good to use someone elses speechs during your PRESIDENTIAL campaign. I want to know that you can think and for sentences and paragraphs out of your thoughts … not borrow someone elses.
Oh Come ON! if this is the worst they can come up with in the smear campaign…the guy must be a frickin' SAINT!
Are you gonna call every lemming who shouts "we're here, we're queer, get used to it," unoriginal and plagiarizing?
Talk about ALL WORDS and NO SUBSTANCE. What is REALLY wrong with Barack Obama? HMMM? anyone? He wants to help you, people. Wake up!
Hillary wants to MAKE YOU buy health insurance…like car insurance. It would be illegal to refuse. Wouldn't you rather have a choice?
Even Perez fans can use reason. Right guys?
If all you've got to peddle are speeches and promises, and your speeches aren't yours, it's not lookin' so hot for the promises, friends.
nigga needs a new speech writer.
Re: jenna –
F*CK Ya Jenna!! I wish more women were not fooled by this slick lying Politician.
Re: ShitFucker – Hey Shitfucker at 114, why don't you go blow Obama & pack some of his fudge. (While he hits the pipe. That's how crack whores like it. Melody at 113 told me.)
Back OFF!! this isn't even a big deal at all! its people like you with nothing better to do, that even care about this SHIT!!
Are you getting paid from the Hillary camp? seriously….
I will never visit this site again!!!! O
Perez! They share speech writers! Something quite usual for Washington DC.
If I wanted political information, I'd log on to CNN. Stick to celebrity gossip, Perez. I have a brain, I can make up my own mind, thanks.
its not plagarism you dumb cuban american. no one ever says "i have a dream in a speech?" Clinton never said that? get your facts straight. people "plagiarize" all the time
that is obviously taken out of context.do you think a presidential candidate would be dumb enough to plagiarize someone else speech?and he obviously had permission by that man to use such lines.fuck you perez you are a biased piece of shit.
It's not plagiarizing when you have permission!
