How Is This Funny?

I've stared at this cartoon for several minutes and I just don't get it. The picture portrays CIA Director and Air Force General Michael Hayden as a drunken, slovenly bum. Liberals just don't understand that to be funny, satire must be based in fact. There is absolutely nothing factual about this cartoon. So rather than being funny (to normal people), it just comes off as mean-spirited and hateful. Yet, this is the kind of garbage that has liberals rolling in the aisles. Just more proof that liberals aren't like us. They're broken.

i just don't get it. are liberals sure they want to keep attacking hayden (just) because he facilitated the nsa program that the vast majority of this country approves of?

and also: is that a cigar with a toothpick stuck through it?

Liberals are many things, but they can't be accused of being rational.

Yes, that is a cigar on a toothpick. I believe that was made famous by Red Skelton, who played a hobo named Freddie the Freeloader. It's a way of smoking a cigar down to a nub without burning the fingers.
