Icon108 Matt Groening's new Pledge of Allegiance

Comment: The new Pledge of Allegiance

I pledge allegiance to and wrap myself in the flag of the United States
Against Anything Un-American and to the Republicans for which it stands,
two nations, under Jesus, rich against poor, with curtailed liberty and
justice for all except blacks, homosexuals, women who want abortions,
Communists, welfare queens, treehuggers, feminazis, illegal immigrants,
children of illegal immigrants, and you if you don't watch your step.

by Matt Groening

This site states it is from "Life in Hell" dated 16th December 1994.

Slightly similar "Life in Hell" pledge strip.

Zappa pledge.

I think if Groening wrote it, it might actually be funny. The OP seems a bit below-standard for him.
