Conservative Group Uses Stephen Colbert Testimony In W.Va. Attack Ad
A conservative group is seeking to inject Stephen Colbert's testimony to a House subcommittee into West Virginia's U.S. Senate race.

The spot attacking Democratic candidate and Governor Joe Manchin., is produced by the Committee For Truth in Politics. The spot shows a montage of issues appealing to conservatives, in an effort to describe how "many things are wrong in Washington," before showing a still of the comedian.

"And they think it's all one big joke," the narrator says.

According to the nonprofit, non-partisan group FactCheck.org, Committee For Truth in Politics is represented by lawyer James Bopp, who worked on behalf of Citizens United on the U.S. Supreme Court case that overturned limits on corporate and union spending in elections.
