I was not the one who brought up the word Liberty into the conversation about ACA.

And no I do not defend the NSA's actions.

But are you really saying that the same people who claim Liberty as their excuse for being against the ACA were protesting just as vigorously and publicly when the Patriot Act passed? or when it was renewed? or when the NSA spy scandal broke?
Not to mention when Romneycare passed in Massachusetts. So, where's the proof?

Again, my point is that if Liberty was the true concern, these earlier events would have provoked the public outrage that they are now showing about the ACA. So that cannot be the real reason.
