Krusty: Well, Itchy and Scratchy are gone, but here's a cartoon that tries to make learning fun! Sorry about this, kids. But stay tuned. We've got some real good toy commercials coming right up. I swear.
Boy: Say, who left all this garbage on the steps of Congress?
Amendment-to-be:
I'm not garbage.
I'm an amendment to be.
Yes, an amendment to be.
And I'm hoping that they'll ratify me.
There's a lot of flag burners
Who have got too much freedom.
I want to make it legal for policemen to beat 'em.
'Cause there's limits to our liberties.
'Least I hope and pray that there are.
'Cause those liberal freaks go too far.
Boy: But why can't we just make a lawagainst flag burning?
Amendment-to-be: Because that law would be unconstitutional. But if we changethe Constitution...
Boy: Then we could make all sorts of crazy laws.
Amendment-to-be: Now you're catching on.
Bart: What the hell is this?
Lisa: It's one of those campy seventies throwbacks that appeals to generation x-ers.
Bart: We need another Vietnam to thin out their ranks a little.
Boy: But what if people say you're not good enough to be in the Constitution?
Amendment-to-be:
Then I'll crush all opposition to me
And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay.
If he fights back, I'll say that he's gay.
Narrator: Good news, amendment. They ratified you. You're in the U.S. Constitution.
Amendment-to-be: Oh, yeah! Door's open, boys!
Lisa: So it's true. Some cartoons do encourage violence.
