A Filibuster By Any Other Name . . .

TPM Reader ZK makes a good catch. The AP story I linked to below in the post on habeas corpus rights for detainees being rejected by the Senate says the vote was 56-43 “against the bill.” ZK writes, “Last I checked that meant 56 Senators voted FOR the bill. You should put up a warning about that – the media sure has changed how they report these votes.” Indeed it has, as we noted back in July.
