Hard-ass right wingers > tend to be upfront about what they believe. Being "upfront" does not mean they don't engage in egregious denial. Denial tends to be worse as you approach any extreme position, as there are too many obvious holes in the position, and the extremist adherents must deny them in order to handle the cognitive dissonance. I'd be curious to know whom you consider to be "soft-C" versus the (by implication) "righteous hard-C". I suspect someone I consider to be a rabid irrational foam-on-mouth hard-ass rightwing hatemonger may be someone you view as "soft".
