Gerard Way
Image

Jenny Downham
Image
If you aren't creeped out by the No Birth Control Left Behind rhetoric of the White House and Planned Parenthood, you aren't listening closely enough. The anesthetic of progressive benevolence always dulls the senses. Wake up.
Michelle Malkin
Image
Each wrong act brings with it its own anesthetic, dulling the conscience and blinding it against further light, and sometimes for years.
