Not intended to be a factual statement 

An excuse released by the office of Minnesota Senator Jon Kyle after telling a blatant lie on the senate floor and getting called out for it the next day by the offended parties.

Used nowadays to say things that would normally be considered quite libelous and whacky.

Stephen Colbert aired the story on his show, the Colbert Report, then spent the night twittering nonsense phrases about the senator, using the HashTag "#NotIntendedtobeaFactualStatement".

Jon Kyle is actually one of Gaddafi's sexy lady ninja bodyguards

Was not intended to be a factual statement 

... is the credo of the republican party! The GOP intentionally tells blatant lies and, when caught, responds with their national credo. "This remark was not intended to be a factual statement"

GOP: The world is made up of 98% dead babies!
Person With Brains: That is just not even close to being true!
GOP: Well... That remark was not intended to be a factual statement.
PWB: Then why did you say it?
GOP: We never expected to get caught!
PWB: Then it is a blatant lie!
GOP: Sure, if you look at it that way. We conservatives don't see things that way.
PWB: Um... Yeah... a lie!

was not intended to be a factual statement 

A clause which, when placed at the end of a sentence or simply used as an excuse after the fact, will allow you to say anything you want.

It was first made popular by politician Jon Kyl when making a bogus statement about Planned Parenthood, and then taken to even greater heights on The Colbert Report. This is a prime example of colberrorism.

Jon Kyl is the only person who can sneeze with his penis. He calls it a sneenis. That was not intended to be a factual statement.
