EspañolNOAH S. SWEAT
Judge 'Noah S. "Soggy" Sweat, Jr.' was a judge, law professor and state representative in the U.S. state of Mississippi, notable for his 1952 speech on the floor of the Mississippi state legislature concerning whiskey, which is considered a classic example of political doublespeak. Reportedly the speech took Sweat 2½ months to write [1].
Judge Sweat was also the founder of the Mississippi Judicial College of the University of Mississippi Law Center.[2].
