Why'd they have to have it read to them?  Why not read it on their own time?  Were they not to be trusted to do it on their own?

Did you read your Constitution as required for homework?

I was going to but the dog ate it.

Whew!  I watched Saturday AM cartoons in the 50s and 60s.  I don't need to have it memorized.

So damned what? Oh I know. This is the first time a party does something to appeal to their base. Shhh. We won't talk about repeal of DADT, bailouts to unions, Obamacare exemptions to unions, blah blah blah.
Someone get Hoss a pacifier.

I heard many of them started to object when they heard "in order to form a more perfect union".

Loved me some Schoolhouse Rock.  Nothing can top "I'm Just A Bill".  I knew how that worked before I even got to Jr High civics class.
