This really is a very funny comic. The elephant of course represents the republican party where the religious man represents the church. It shows them working together to keep a women from getting her birth control. The women represents the general public that supports the use of contraceptives such as birth control. This comic is significant because it shows the "republican party" and the "church" working together which in itself goes against separation of church and state. It also has the elephant saying "I'm taking a well-deserved break from job creation" which isn't exactly what the republican party is doing but many of the candidates are focusing on social issues such as the use of contraceptives more than the creation of jobs.
Gabe, nice analysis of cartoons. Keep it up.
