I'm more of a "Conservatives both think and feel--liberals feel that they know how everybody shall live" kinda guy.

Actually, that post takes that view as well ("conservatives think, liberals feel"), & expands on it to show how it has played out in the real world. In essence, libs still "feel" their ideas are superior in spite of the facts that conservatives have shown with conclusive evidence they are inferior. Since the right has done this time after time, all too many leftists have built an emotional wall to fend off the undeniable realities conservatives insist they face. What that post goes on to show is that libs have accomplished that by projecting their own character flaws onto conservatives. In their minds, conservatives: - are "the enemy", - are "a perfect model of malice" - are "sinister, ubiquitous, powerful, cruel" - "manufactures, the mechanism of history, or tries to deflect the normal course of history in an evil way" - control the MSM, - brainwash the masses, - are "paranoid", - ET AL. And many leftists are so emotionally attached to their ideology they "feel" that "anyone who opposes them is not just wrong, but evil". Again it's just another way of avoiding any civil discussion of facts & evidence that the right uses to show how history has conclusively documented the inferiority of liberal theory placed into practice.
