Title: We found Saddam! (political humor)

Hmmm... not really political (more inflammatory) not really humor (see lack of laughing).

I think he's actually saying he would hug Ken Lay if he were in the room.

Political humor typically needs some grain of truth in it to actually qualify as "humor". Saddam and Hillary Clinton? Wait, didn't she vote for the Iraq war? Didn't her husband spend millions of dollars lobbing cruise missiles at him during his presidency? This random caption doesn't make any sense, therefore = not funny.

Sorry Zimph, I missed it - what was the humour?

It's not our fault you're not funny.

But we can try to make it our fault, will that work?

Well I didn't MAKE the picture, so it wouldn't be ME that was "not funny"

This is the ONLY forum from which I have posted this in, that didn't laugh about it.

This came from a "liberal source" too.

I think it's safe to mark this up as just being a MacNN lack of sense of humor.
