I'm just a bill. Yes, I'm only a bill ...
And I'm sitting here on Capitol Hill.

6. Gwen Ifill
When I was watching Gwen Ifill reporting from the Clinton White House, she always ended her newscasts "Gwen Ifill from Capitol Hill"

I don't like her but that stuck to me for a while.

7. I'm An Amendment To Be... (thanks to the Simpsons)
http://www.esquilax.com/flag/amendmnt.mp3

kid: Hey! Who left all this garbage on the steps of Congress?

rolled up amendment: I'm not garbage.


(singing)
I'm an amendment to be, yes an amendment to be,
and I'm hopin' that they'll ratify me.
There's a lot of flag burners who have got too much freedom.
I wanna 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.

kid: Well why can't we just make a law against flag burning?

Amendment: Because that law would be unconstitutional.
But if we changed the Constitution...

kid: Then we could make all sorts of crazy laws!

Amendment: Now you're catching on!


Kid: What if people say you're not good enough to be in the Constitution?

Amendment (singing):
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.

Congressman: Good news, Amendment! They ratified ya! You're in the U.S. Constitution.

Amendment: Oh yeah! Door's open, boys.

12. Ever see the Simpsons' version of this song?
Hysterical. I wish I had the clip -- sort of a "real world" version of how politicals really works.

15. Let me know how it is....
I've contemplated getting it for my kids to watch. They always think we're crazy when one of us starts singing a School House Rock song.
