Yes, you and Ann Coulter are right. Also, leftists act on their feelings, and conservatives use logic. Feelings trump thoughts because they are deeper in the brain. Ir is really hard to argue with feelings. Which is why they can brush off our arguments.

I have trained myself to say "how do you feel about..." when I am talking to a liberal. They can answer that type of question, keeping a dialogue open, much better than a "what do you think about..." which they hear as an attack on their 'sensibilities' for the poor or the planet or whatever feelgood cause.

Your comments reminded me of one of my favorite songs;

Thick as a brick. (part 1)
by Jethro Tull

Really don't mind if you sit this one out.
My words but a whisper your deafness a SHOUT.
I may make you feel but I can't make you think.
Your sperm's in the gutter your love's in the sink.
So you ride yourselves over the fields and
you make all your animal deals and
your wise men don't know how it feels to be thick as a
brick.

And the sand-castle virtues are all swept away
in the tidal destruction the moral melee.
The elastic retreat rings the close of play
as the last wave uncovers the newfangled way.
But your new shoes are worn at the heels
and your suntan does rapidly peel
and your wise men don't know how it feels
to be thick as a brick.
