Going by production order, this is the 1st episode of Season 7. It originally aired on Comedy Central in the United States on April 9, 2003. The episode title is based on the song "A Little Bit Country, A Little Bit Rock and Roll" by Marty Cooper, as made famous by Donny and Marie Osmond.[2]
The episode aired almost three weeks after the start of the invasion of Iraq and the start of the Iraq War. In the episode, the boys join some anti-war protesters because it's a free pass out of school for the day. Their simple plan to protest their way out of class goes south when they find themselves in the middle of the two opposing sides of the issue. Meanwhile, Cartman attempts a flashback to 1776 to avoid studying for his American History assignment.
The episode was written by series co-creator Trey Parker.
