The house may be Lillians domicile and her roost to rule but it is Hanks house. He is footing the bills for Lillian and his family of parasites.

I can understand wanting to keep the peace in his marriage.

Hank is all confused emotionally. He has allowed himself to be brainwashed.

He is a willing host to a bunch of leeches.

Leeches can't suck you dry unless you let them.

One of the leftist phrases that I actually approve of is “speaking truth” to power but I call it “speaking truth is power”.

Leeches can't suck you dry unless you let them.

This would have been an excellent working title for Atlas Shrugged!

"...Leeches can't suck you dry unless you let them..."

Exquisite and to the point. May I honor your statement by using it as my tagline for a while?
