NSA Spying

Some of my thoughts on this issue.  First, a question.  How does a political conservative-one who distrusts big government-not then oppose a big government program to massively spy on ordinary Americans phone, e-mail and other means of communication?  This is what the NSA surveillance program is and I don't see how liberals and conservatives would not both be opposed.  Second is a position taken by congressman John Boehner on a radio talk show the other day.  He said that the individual who leaked this info-one Snowden-committed a "giant violation of the law" by doing so.  But how is the spying itself not a giant violation of the law.
