From what i recall Foghorn Leghorn was a Samuel Clemens analogue in some skitsOriginally posted by Rommel2D
Hmmm- I thought Cream's ablum 'Disraeli Gears' had this quote sampled from a Warner Bros cartoon featuring Foghorn Leghorn. I might have got something mixed up somewhere along the line, though...

Suburban legends...
That's what I guessed when I saw the middle name. I had previously heard he was based on a southern senator from the era of the cartoons (50's?) who had a fast-talking, patronizing way about him. [See also Elrod the Albino from the Cerebus comics... :-]Originally posted by snoopy369
Particularly note the similarity:
Samuel Langhorne Clemens
Foghorn Leghorn Rooster
You getting all this down boy, or am I going too fast for you?

Quite possible. Clemens was from Missouri, but moved to San Fran right around the war between the states, from what i recall. Though never a senator from what i recall, but who knows

I think the senator was a more contemporary figure, from around the 1950's, if that was the case.
Try and, I say, try and keep up with me here, son...
