Today (Wednesday, April 28) was Saddam Hussein's birthday. Not coincidentally it was also Jay Leno's birthday. Nuff said? Okay, consider this:

Saddam: Achieved his position through backstabbing, betrayal and murder.
Jay: Achieved his position through backstabbing and betrayal. (And, come on, have you seen Johnny lately? Yeah, thought not.)

Saddam: Used ruthless underlings to crush dissidents.
Jay: Used ruthless underling (Helen Kushnick) to crush competition.

Saddam: Tortured his countrymen daily.
Jay: Tortures his countrymen nightly.

    The similarities are seemingly endless.

    As a special birthday treat Saddam was allowed to host the Tonight Show. No-one noticed the difference. And in a strange twist, Jay flew to Iraq and revealed the secret location of the Weapons of Mass Destruction. This evil genius knows no shame.
