Dr. Strangelove, or any propaganda which the libertarians and communists both laud.

No, not Dr. Strangelove, that's one of my favorites! But if you want a liberal one about nuclear war, try Failsafe or even The Bedford Incident. For the liberal fear of a military coup, try Seven Days in May.

Dr. Strangelove

Kubrick was a liberal, but he took shots at the naive idealism of the Adlai Stevensonesque President (one of the three roles Peter Sellers plays in the movie

I have come to the conclusion that you, CJ, are married to a libertarian and you only come here to vent because you can't do it at home.

Am I close?

I neither know nor care whether Dr. Strangelove is a liberal movie, because it's definitely one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.

-------------------------

Ridiculously equating libertarians with communists and liberals again, I see. I guess it hasn't dawned on you yet that most libertarians support free-market capitalism, the antithesis of what commies and liberals preach. But what should I expect from a blatant statist who has the word "Jihad" as part of his username? Haven't you ever thought of changing it after September 11th?

Come on, that was and is one of the best play's on the cold war. Got to lighten-up. Hayden's comment that women desire his "essence" but he denies them his "precious bodily fluids". George C's overboard Gen.Turgidson "but they'll see the Big Board". Sellers " Mein Fuerer I can walk". Satire and truth at it's Best!!!

I wouldn't count Dr. Strangelove as a liberal movie. It pointed out in a satirical way that there would have been no real winners in an all-out nuclear war. This doesn't necessarily make it liberal. I thought Dr. Strangelove was actually quite funny.

...don't forget, "Seven Days In May."

The Leftist demonization of patriotism in that one was breathtakingly state-of-the-art.
No wonder we had the counter-culture of the 60s.

Beginning with crap like that one extruded outa Hollywierd's Leftists almost continually, nonstop ad nauseum?
It'd have been even stranger had the society not gone nuts.
