The phrase Moonbat was NOT coined on this website. Wikipedia should not be used to improve a blogger's Page Rank! User:PerrydAviland
- See link [1]. Wikipedia should not be used as an outlet for petty grudges against people you don't like. -- JJay 16:00, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
- I can barely have a grudge about a person I know nothing about. I merely do not wish to see urban myths propogated here for the sake of a blogger's notoriety. Goldberg definitely used the phrase first, that is a fact. User:PerrydAviland
- No it is not a fact. There are sources that attribute the word to Samizdata, such as the link above. Please provide a link that attributes it to Goldberg. -- JJay 16:25, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
- Goldberg used the word moonbat it in an article in 1999. The link is (probably) on the moonbat page. If that is not evidence enough, we are truly in the realms of finding the 'one true scotsman'. User:PerrydAviland
This blog no longer claims to be libertarian, thus is no longer a libertarian weblog. 66.174.79.227 01:57, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
