For those of you who aren't aware of who Jon Kyl is and what he's done to deserve riddicule, here's a quick refresher:

So Stephen Colbert has started a twitter campaign, in which participants can say anything they want about Senator Kyl, as long as they include the hash tag "#NotIntendedToBeAFactualStatement"
Hilarity ensued.

Quote:
Last week, as the government neared a shutdown, Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz) was speaking on the floor of the Senate about his opposition to funding Planned Parenthood because abortions are "well over 90 percent" of what they do. ... According to data from Planned Parenthood, abortion procedures account for 3 percent of their total services ... In response, Kyl's answer was that his remark was "not intended to be a factual statement, but rather to illustrate that Planned Parenthood, an organization that receives millions in taxpayer dollars, does subsidize abortions."
