Liberals are very active in civil liberties. You just aren't counting what einbert was talking about, like voting rights.
If you just want to talk about government invasion of privacy, that's hard because a fair amount of liberals don't care that much about such things. But there is no significant other side available. When the Patriot Act was last extended 122 Democrats vs 31 Republicans voted against in the House.
Should liberals protest Democrats? Yes, absolutely in my opinion, but some people think protesting Democrats undermines them and plays into your team's hands.
