I agree! I've got no use for liberalism, but their are a few "good" liberals. Genuinely misguided people who still seek the good of mankind. I believe Mara is one of these. There may be a few more, but they are rare.
I don't believe that Mara is misguided. She's been in this game too long and she's too smart to always have to be bending over backward to make sense out of liberal logic.
