You didn't think "crying Jesus waving two American flags" was obvious enough? There's no "if" here, Ward Sutton has been doing that satirical bit in The Onion for almost 20 years now (it even says "Onion Syndicate" in the top-right)

The whole bit is the fictional cartoonist Stan Kelly is a horrible wrong-about-everything goblin. It's laughing directly at those assholes and their twisted view of the world. If you took like two seconds out of your misguided indignation you could have figured that out on your own.
