Why is it when, a question about the PATRIOT Act is raised, liberals...?

always say that famous Ben Franklin quote about security and liberty, but they appear to not make the connection of their own hypocrisy of global warming? You guys dislike people who use more gas than needed, yet, if i decide to give up my hummer(if i had one) that would be sacrificing liberty for security. Is it Mindless sheep or boring rhetoric?
