These #s are surely skewed. Colbert should be polling in the high 30s.

As one of the comments to the article pointed out, Stephen Colbert isn’t running for president, he’s pointing out the absurdity of SuperPACs and the electoral process via brilliant satire.
What were the numbers on Murphy Brown?

You will find that this website is a staunch defender of “free speech,” especially when it’s purchased in the millions by corporate “persons.” So back off the criticism of Super PACS, OK?

1) I didn’t criticize SuperPACs, I said Stephen Colbert did and brilliantly. It’s brilliant regardless of whether or not I agree.
2) While yes, corporations and unions are groups of people and do have the constitutional right to contribute to campaigns and run political ads, I think it would be best for Americans to encourage them not to, via boycotts, protests, petitions, etc. After all, businesses can be brought down or changed via the pocketbook.

Yes, yes, yes. By all means. Let’s encourage corporations not to purchase elections.
Who shall we boycott first?
Hey! I’ve got a great idea…let’s start a MeetUp! Maybe we can get a corporate group of people to come, too.
How about Denny’s tomorrow night at 7?
