Squirrelhunter91 Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Found this in my local paper yesterday: [ QUOTE ] In most places, a politician has to kiss babies. It's rougher in Arkansas, where politicians have to chow down on barbecued raccoon too. And while some pols get queasy at the annual Coon Supper in Gillett --- the ultimate meet-and-greet for state candidates --- skipping it is even worse officials say. " If it weren't for the Coon Supper, I probably wouldn't be in public life today, " admitted Rep. Marion Berry. And no, Pepto-Bismol is not included.
