Siamese Sue Two Headed Turtle Mirrors Political Split
A humorous local feature describes a two headed turtle named Siamese Sue found in Louisiana swamps. The piece likens its split personalities to a Republican Dixiecrat party and even hints the Democratic Party might also exhibit a two headed approach. The tale uses satirical contrast with a prior two headed terrapin, Super Diamond, to poke at American political factions.
