It never fails that when a discussion of fluoride in public water supplies is mentioned, reference is made to the movie, Dr. Strangelove, from 1964. This film coincided with the Johnson vs. Goldwater Presidential race, when the liberals tried to paint Goldwater and his fellow conservatives as lunatics and warmongers. Movies like Dr. Strangelove and Seven Days in May (also a 1964 release) were part of the liberal smear campaign, a successful one, given Johnson's huge victory margin that November. The same liberals immersed this nation in a prolonged, no-win war in Vietnam, a war many of them later disavowed and tried to pin on the successor GOP administration of Richard Nixon.

The citation of this 1960s era liberal propaganda film is evidence that FR is infested with people who have no connection with the conservatism of the recent past as represented by the likes of Russell Kirk or Milton Friedman. In fact, they are merely Kennedy-Johnson era liberals, who got off the Democrat bus due to their dissent on social issues like abortion or gay rights.
