A Quick Quiz
Time to test yourselves, readers.
1) Name as many of the five freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment as you can.
2) Name as many of the members of the animated Simpson family as you can (nuclear family only).
According to a recent survey conducted by a museum, 22% of Americans can name all 5 Simpsons, while only one person in a thousand can name all five freedoms. According to the survey, "about 1 in 5 people thought the right to own a pet was protected."
How well did you do? I'll post the answers in the comments section.

Simpsons: Marge, Homer, Maggie, Lisa, Bart (does anyone know if Marge and Maggie are both short for Margaret, or are those their given names?)
First amendment freedoms: press, speech, religion, assembly, petition for redress of grievances
Are you really an athiest, Mike? I didn't realize that. Of course, it's only a matter of time until your wife converts you....
My dh knew 4 freedoms and all the simpsons.
I'm clueless. lol
I got 3 freedoms and all Simpsons (plus bonus points for Snowball II and Santa's Little Helper).
Thanks for that interesting article, Mike!
If we had a weekly show about the First Amendment running on Fox for the last 17 years... then maybe the numbers would be higher!
Then again, I don't trust Fox enough to present a show about any of the amendments!
