This cartoon does not have a caption or title. However, it is obvious that the person in the cartoon is Obama with three mosquitoes named Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya. I believe the cartoonist is saying that it is best for Obama to refrain from involving himself with yet another country. The three mosquitoes are feeding on Obama which means that Obama has a lot on his plate already before involving Libya. This cartoon relates directly to the event in Libya, a topic discussed in class. There is not any apparent use of satire or irony, it is simply stating that Obama is weighing himself down with all these issues.
