Colbert's Twitter war with Jon Kyl

Steven Colbert is making an example out of Arizona Senator Jon Kyl for making up statistics about Planned Parenthood while on the Senate floor Monday. Kyl quoted that "if you want an abortion you go to Planned Parenthood, and that's well over 90 percent of what they do." In actuality, only three percent of what Planned Parenthood does are abortions. When questioned about the severe error he said "his remark was not intended to be a factual statement." Cobert is now challenging viewers to add to a long list of "not intended to be factual statements" about the Senator on Twitter. If you'd like to add to the list go to http://twitter.com/stephenathome.
