Is Pelosi a liar or a lunatic?

Living in San Francisco, Im in my mid 20s. Most of my friends are dead head, hippy types. One Saturday they're on their way to a protest, i was hanging at their house. they were goign to protest the imprisonment of mumia jamal, a rasta type guy arested for shooting a cop. I pressed them on why he should be released. They go round and round about racism, blah, blah, blah. But I kept asking did he or didnt he shoot a cop? Rounds and rounds of nonsense and no one could explain if he did or didnt shoot a cop. My point is that this type of self inflated rightousness is what makes true liberals thrive. They have a battle that most are too ignorant to understand. Pelosi is in that vein.

You are right of course, and that's why I say liberalism is a mental disorder. There is no other explanation.

I know all about Abu Mumia Jamal. I actually met Ed Asner once, and he is one of those Hollywood celebrities who thinks Mumia Jamal should be freed and made a hero. I asked the fat slob if he knew of any exculpatory evidence, or any issues of unfairness during the trial, and he couldn't think of anything. He was committed to the cause of freeing Abu Jamal, yet he had no idea why he should be behind that cause.

Abu Jamal didn't just shoot a cop, he killed a cop. In France, I swear to God, they made him (Abu Jamal) an honorary citizen. They bestowed an honor on a convicted cop-killer.

This is why I get nasty in some of these posts, I have no patience for these people anymore. I know some honest, fair, thoughtful liberals, but not many. Most liberals I know are of the brainwashed, thoughtless, intellectually dishonest type (you almost need to fit that description to buy into that agenda), completely unable to articulate why their ideas are better than conservative ideas, yet more than willing to attack conservatives...
