Colbert Satirizes 'Money as Speech' with a Word Cloud

Stephen Colbert's Super PAC is genius. He's managed to illuminate a very dark and confusing byproduct of the Citizens United decision. On Tuesday, Colbert made a word cloud with all the suggestions he got from his website. Then he made another word cloud from all the people who paid money to make suggestions. Completely different word cloud.

Speaking of words, you must also watch his interview with GOP consultant, Frank Luntz.
