- 1993 July 26, Daniel Mendelsohn, “Republicans Can Be Cured!”, in The New York Times:
- Surprisingly, some Republican activists hail the findings as a step forward rather than as an invitation to more conservaphobia. They argue that since Republicans didn't "choose" their unwholesome life style any more than someone "chooses" to have a ski-jump nose, they shouldn't be denied civil rights to which normal people are entitled.
- 1997, Eric Smith, “Escape from L.A.”, in alt.horror (Usenet):
- I could buy Escape from NY as a slam on newly-elected President Reagan, but I agree the carrying of this same conservaphobia into the 1990s is ridiculous.
