That analogy is so right, as far as I can tell. I think there is a big difference between falling under a label and self-identifying as it.

While posting another reply, I just saw that the abortion-stance euphemisms make the same appropriate analogy here as the analogy you chose.

People who value life are pro-life in the same sense that people who value choice are pro-choice in the same sense that people who value civil liberties are civil libertarians in the same sense that people who value women are feminists.

You didn't answer the question.

There's no intention of answering it, just demonizing "civil libertarians" - i.e., anyone who disagrees with him and thinks this violates civil liberties - in order to pretend to have the high ground.
