How bout some good news for once? [1]

Saw this headline and pertinent point in my local paper just now:
Stop Fluoridating Water
National Toxicology Program's conclusion concerning the I.Q. lowering effects of fluoride... The NTP study showed, "with moderate confidence," that water fluoride levels greater that 1.5 milligrams per liter "are associated with lower I.Q. in children."
So the good news?
The 'right' is great at playing the long game (or long con, as it might more aptly be labeled). It’s time we looked a little further down the road ourselves.
If the study cited is correct, and they get the fluoride out of the water, I.Q.'s are going to rise. That's just math and ‘science’.
Therefore I predict, that in the not too distant future, the percentage of the 'maga-minded' will drop significantly, by at least 10-12%; a major blow to the Republican dreams of a hundred year fascist Reich.
They'll have fewer teeth, but be smarter, and thus less likely to mindlessly buy whatever the repubs are selling.
See? Good news.
