I think the Colbert Super PAC thing is funny in general, but I have to say, I'm not comfortable with the first ad their running, encouraging Iowa straw poll voters to write in "Rick Parry" (note the misspelling of his name) on their ballots. I guess it depends what the rules are about misspellings - if a vote for "Rick Parry" would be correctly counted, then I suppose the ad's not so bad, but even still...misleading people about how (or when) to propertly submit their votes just isn't accetable.

Meh he will claim its satire and be absolved of accountability for it.

Those damned liberals. We need some kind of fairness doctrine to make sure they don't sabotage elections with their liberal "free speech" antics.

I'm not sure free speech applies to electoral fraud. Although neither am I sure this cinsitutes electoral fraud.

Let's call it 'electoral shenanigans' and pass a law (isn't that what liberals do?)

If you're dumb enough to do that not realizing it's a joke, then I think your vote was probably better off wasted.

ACORN has been- finally. But that's all racially motivated by racist teabaggers so it doesn't count. Really I don't care about Colbert. It just easy to predict the response that will happen when certain allegations are claimed.
