Drupal is a very powerful CMS, and is very flexible - you can make it do
nearly anything you want. There are tons of free add-one modules and
themes available for it.

Core Drupal runs without problems on PostgreSQL, as do all the main
add-on modules you're likely to need (Views, etc); some
not-so-well-written modules may not, though it's not a problem I've ever
run into personally.

I thought Joomla could be made run on Postgres, though I may be wrong.
