The trouble with proofreading you posts is that after all that extra time spent you still sometimes make typos in the corrections and end up twisting or reversing your meaning.
You left out the obvious example of the right to life issue as an extremely emotional one for conservatives. You are right that both sides have emotional issues, and SDAI is right that reason rather than emotion should be the guide to the correct OR (as in this case) the least wrong answer.
The GW issues is not about strong emotions on either side. The strongest emotion is the relatively weak concern. Concern for the future dominating on one side and concern for the present dominating for the other. Despite that debates on any entrenched position can become quite emotional.
