UPDATE: Drudge Report Picks Up Committed Marine Story, Soldier Released

Conservative media behemoth Drudge Report picked up the Brandon Raub story a couple of days ago (full disclosure: I plugged my blog by sending them a tip), and, under intense public pressure, a federal drudge has ordered the immediate release of the Marine from a VA psychiatric ward. A win for civil libertarians! This is precisely why the Feds want to stifle free speech on the web via the NDAA, CISPA, etc.
