I missed that part. What misrepresentations?

True liberals should decry this infraction of 1st amendment guarantees.

That's true. Reid's actions are almost as bad as those who attacked moveon.org for its ad about General Patraeus. I say "almost" because at least moveon appeared to be acting in good faith. I am not sure the same can be said about Rush Limbaugh.
At any rate, all of this official condemnation of speech is most unfortunate.
