The Amendment To Be is a character in an educational film.

History[edit]

When a boy walked by the Capitol Building and noted all the garbage near the steps, the Amendment to Be corrected him and stated that he wasn't garbage, but the draft of an amendment to legalize police brutality towards liberals who burn American flags, as making a law that did this would be deemed unconstitutional. He also mentioned that if people were opposed to his being inserted, he would crush all opposition, including Ted Kennedy, as well as hinting that he'd expose that he's gay if he even attempted to fight back. He luckily didn't have to, however, as a congressman told him that he's been ratified. However, he did lead more Amendments-to-be into Congress with bombs and guns.

Bart and Lisa weren't impressed with this cartoon, especially after it replaced the then-cancelled Itchy and Scratchy Show. Bart also speculated that they could "thin out the Generation-X's numbers" by instigating another Vietnam War. Lisa also remarked that cartoons did inspire violence, striking Bart in her anger at the lame cartoon.

Behind the Laughter[edit]
