This political cartoon is a parody of the movie Brokeback Mountain, in the scene where one of main characters expresses his frustration in not being able to break up with the other character. This cartoon shows Rick Perry expressing his own desire to "be quit" of homophobia.
In short, this cartoon is making fun of the recent Rick Perry campaign ad, where he touted prayer in school and seemed to make a snub to gays serving in the military, which many interpreted as his own homophobic feelings.
The cartoonist who illustrated this most likely has a moderate or left-leaning political ideology judging from their disparaging view on Rick Perry, a Republican candidate hopeful. (well, not really..but yeah)
