If I say the President and Mayor are crooks is this speech protected by the first amendment?
Yes, this type of political speech is protected by the first amendment to the Constitution of the United States. The protection ends when you enter the area of perjury or you make damaging statements that you know are false. If you go into court to testify and state under oath (falsely) that the President did something, that is perjury. If you go to the newspaper and falsely claim that you saw the mayor take a payoff from a developer, that is libel. Speech that is just opinion or is hyperbole (Obama is too thin to be President, Bush is the worst President in history, etc.) is protected.
