Yeah there are some despicable liberals, but every now and then you find a diamond in the rough. In my Randian days I used to think all liberals are evil and dishonest, and I have to admit I have almost no close friends that are liberal. Some conservative types, I can befriend, but I just never trust liberals. There are a few for whom I've developed a grudging respect--well, lack of extreme disgust, would be more accurate--e.g. I always thought Michael Kinsley, of Crossfire, was pretty honest and fair for a liberal. And then there's my friend Rob Rosenthal. And maybe... Christopher Hitchens...? Gore Vidal? And then there's... no, no one else comes to mind. Little help?
