We love politics at The Hollywood Gossip, but we tend to keep our posts geared towards Ashley Dupre, or George W. Bush and the Easter Bunny.
In other words, we try to keep opinions to ourselves and focus on humor or scandal. Other celebrity gossip sites, however, can't help themselves.
A post on Perez Hilton today rips Democratic candidate Barack Obama over his connections to another controversial minister, Rev. James T. Meeks.
Perez details Rev. Meeks' inflammatory comments on gays and race, yet declines to mention that Obama has condemned homophobia on many occasions, and even met with gay leaders in New York in the last 48 hours. Disgraceful indeed.
It's a blatant and shameful attempt by Perez, a devout Hillary Clinton supporter, to slander Barack Obama, who he apparently thinks should be held accountable for the political views of every person he has ever associated with.
Noticeably absent from the article as well? Any connections Hillary might have to shady individuals. The former First Lady is a strong candidate for president, but there are more than a few skeletons (and ugly clothes) in that closet, no?
Perez Hilton needs to stick with what he's good at (or at least best known for), rather than subjecting us to his political opinions - and making cheap attacks.
You could least try to give a more balanced portrait, Perez. We don't judge you based on everything your BFF Spencer Pratt says or does. Think about it.
It's one thing to scribble lame comments on celebrity pics. It's another to back up your nonsensical, biased views. It's time for Perez to put up or shut up!
Enough is enough. The Hollywood Gossip hereby challenges Perez Hilton to a fair debate on the candidates... anytime, anywhere.
Can we taunt the blue-haired one enough to make him accept? With your help, readers, Yes We Can! Follow the link to his article HERE, leave a comment on Perez's site and tell him to respond to The Hollywood Gossip's challenge!
Let's see what this hack is made of.

I remember when perez stated that Fidel Castro was dead, and he was 100% sure of it. well guess what he was wrong, yet perez claims he is alway right. Just for fun I 'Googled' the phrase "perez is a liar" and I got over a half million hits, 543,000 to be exact. Anyway I’m beginning to think that perez is nearly akin to a pathological liar and he seems to run his blog that way too, just read the definition of a pathological liar below:
A pathological liar is usually defined as someone who lies incessantly to get their way and does so with little concern for others. Pathological lying is often viewed as coping mechanism developed in early childhood and it is often associated with some other type of mental health disorder. A pathological liar is often goal-oriented (i.e., lying is focused - it is done to get one's way). Pathological liars have little regard or respect for the rights and feelings of others. A pathological liar often comes across as being manipulative, cunning and se

Obama's unexperienced? For the record: Obama served eight years in the Illinois state Senate and is halfway through his first term in the U.S. Senate. Clinton is about to begin her eighth year in the U.S. Senate. Going by years spent as an elective official, Obama's 11 years exceeds Clinton's seven, which in turn exceeds Edwards' six. But it's a silly calculus, and OH! I forgot she was married to the president boy is that a qualifier. And yes, I know my comment is late

I'm excercising my right to oppose perez's blatant bias against obama. i will not view his blog thru the primary. the same thing for SNL, who (effectively) endorsed h clinton.

Mario Lavandeira has banned several people (myself included) from posting comments on his website "PerezHilton.com" by blocking their email and IP addresses because they dared criticise him and tell him to be fair in his comments about Obama vs Hillary! How come this man cannot handle criticisms when he makes his living out of insulting/criticizing others?...There is a say on the World Wide Web: "For every person who loves Mario Lavandeira alias Perez Hilton, three others hate him"!
I AM WRITING THIS EMAIL FOR THE SAKE OF FREEDOM OF SPEECH. All advertisers on PerezHilton.com should support the Freedom of Speech, not people who prevent others from expressing their opinion simply because they disagree with them!
Every serious organization/company should defend/protect the FREEDOM OF SPEECH! Do NOT support Mario Lavendeira's agenda.

Perez is a loser and he should stop bashing Obama for people he has known in the past. Perez is now a wannabe star. Why don't the paps follow him around and see how he likes it.
