there is no comparison between the intrusions of conservatives with the intrusions of liberals in our everday life

That's simply because they've had more opportunity. If conservatives control both the legislative and executive branches, you'll see the shoe on the other foot, and I don't think the dance is going to change much. As soon as they have the power, they'll be thinking of all the WONDERFUL things they could accomplish just by a few little interventions here and there, and before you know it they'll be doing exactly what the liberals do when they have the chance.

This is not a comment on liberals and conservatives, it is a comment on the behaviour of people with power. People with power try to impose their ideas on others (for their own good, of course), and they do not take any steps to diminish the power of institutions they control. That's human nature.
