I thought I would contribute to the decoding of this image. In the poster in the above image I believe the person depicted is Boyd K. Packer one of the 12 apostles of the Church of Jesus-Christ of later day saints. check the next image to see what you think.
The red and blue come from one of president Obama's campaign poster for hope seen in the next image.

Which could mean that this editorial cartoon is saying that there is hope for gay people if they change the way they think or it implies that gays have a choice if they are gay or not. Which is somewhat true considering that the church's view is that one may have more thoughts about same sex attraction but, does not think you have to act on it and that in essence everyone is heterosexual at their root.

It is also interesting to note that the pose of Elder Packer is similar to that of Uncle Sam's, "I want you" poster, shown below. So, does this mean that he is saying, "I want you to change and there is hope?" Maybe, maybe not. Leave your opinions in the comments.
