Then I did a little poking around. It's not hard. All you have to do is switch on any talk radio show and eventually one of these self-righteous "conservatives" will be found holding court, or simply flick through the hundreds of channels on cable TV where the more telegenic are regularly featured. Or those with a stronger cast of mind can check out the bestseller list where you'll find their words immortalized between covers, or comb the editorial pages of even "moderate" newspapers and you'll find them. Of course, the quickest way is via the Internet where, like insects and centipedes under an overturned rock, their rawest opinions are on display.

For a guy going off about "hate", I'm just not feeling the love in that paragraph.

When liberals speak their mind, it is as if the Gods themselves are whispering the truths of the ages upon a mild summer breeze. When conservatives speak their mind, it is as if the gates of Hell have opened, and the winds of decay and rot pour upon the lands, whithering and destroying every living thing in its wake.

Just FYI. This is what liberals actually think, if "think" is the right word.

I think he's taking that quote out of context too - I suspect that the underlying idea there was that we're all living as percentage-slaves to the IRS and the Federal Government. Someone from whom 100% of their labor is forcibly confiscated is not too qualitatively different from someone losing only 50% of the fruits of their labor to forcible confiscation.
