Indignity of indignities …

The (quasi) hometown paper of the Frist Filibuster students, the Trenton Times, has a story about the students triumphal entry into Washington a couple days ago to bring their filibuster to the Capitol steps.

But down in the text we have this description of what they’re trying to accomplish (emphasis added): “Opponents call the bid to end filibusters the ‘nuclear option’ while advocates, such as Frist, say all court nominees deserve a vote and that some have been waiting years for the Senate to act.”

(ed.note: Thanks to TPM Reader EW for sending us word of this small heartbreak.)
