A VERY SHORT PLAY

ADVISOR: But Mister Bush, a proposed amendment has to be approved by 2/3 of both houses of Congress and then ratified by 3/4 of the states. All it takes is enough voters in 13 states saying 'No' and it's dead.

DUBYA: What do I care if the thing has a snowball's chance in hell of passage? There's an election right around the corner and I need a new football to kick around. Everybody's tired of prayer-in-schools and abortion and the Ten Commandments.

THE END
