No what I am saying is we should stick to real issues that are actually substantial, real meat against them. Let the left play the childish games of over dramatizing things that are nothing. We should be the adults in the room. When we over dramatize non issues like the left we are throwing away the credibility of our own judgement of issues and evidence.

I’ll give you an analogy maybe you might understand. How many people pay any attention to car alarms in parking lots anymore? The answer is no one. Why? Because they get set off 99% of the time by the car owners themselves when there is no theft happening. The alarms are crying wolf when there is no wolf. So no one even listens to them anymore or even looks to see if someone is stealing the car, instead they block them out completely and go on their way.

This is exactly what we are doing to ourselves when we cry wolf and there is no wolf. And when we are completely blocked out no one is going to even pay any attention to the real and substantial issues we share either. Too many false alarms and then everything we share is blocked out. We should save the crying wolf for when there is truly a wolf present. Leave the grasping at straws to the left to over dramatize.

“We should be the adults in the room”

This exact thought is what makes conservatives lie down and get walked all over.

This is very different from crying wolf. This woman’s comments are the product of her partisanship, and they reflect the real bias of judge Engoron.
