Conservative-minded people tend, on the other hand, to reduce liberal thinking to emotional (read irrational, illogical--this is a comment that I often hear conservative-minded folks make) knee-jerk, politically correct, guilt-laden responses to the issue at hand (look over on AKA Ave. or DST Blvd. for some examples of this).
I guess that happens on both sides, with zealous conservatives and liberals. It doesn't really serve anybody for people to be so closed to the ideas of others. In fact, part my definition of liberal means being open to an receptive to all ways of thinking, willing to listen to them, even if you ultimately don't agree with them.
Also, I am a teacher, so I hear all manner of interesting philosophies from my students.
