No, I don't think you are right. Even a brief perusal of the history of the ACLU is one of liberals defending the Constitution. The Scopes trial, Pentagon Papers, Japanese internment, segregation, interracial marriage, McCarthyism, Patriot Act, etc. So liberals have supported the ACLU to defend the Constitution throughout its history, and not just for liberal issues. ACLU supports Citizens United and defended Rush Limbaugh's right to privacy.
