'Feelings' can also mean 'opinions', and perhaps that the context someone is making when they say he was speaking his 'feelings'.
Opinions are like noses...everyone has one, but they don't look the same.
I might think you have a big nose and you might think I have a pug nose, but our opinions don't make us right except in our own minds, and our expression of those opinions don't need to be backed up with facts, nor are retractions in order with the failure of producing those facts.
I agree that some statements he made to be factual should be backed up, but his 'feelings' about the situation are just that.....his feelings. He isn't inviting us to agree with them.

My feelings are the BS is dead wrong by making his statements. And I could care less if it is a verb or a noun.
