As we covered yesterday, the pressure to do something to stop the SWAT-ting of conservative bloggers has reached the highest level of government. That trend continues tonight as Republican Rep. Kenny Marchant calls on the DOJ to investigate SWAT-ting as a way to silence conservative political speech. How much longer until the DOJ takes action to protect First Amendment rights against this dangerous tactic?
