White House briefing a minute ago:

I don't know who this guy is, but he just referred to the two parties as "the republics and Democrats"!!!

In response to their childish "Democrat Party" I've been referring to them as the "republic Party" and people as "republics" for years. I guess that caught on even with them.

And all through the debate the last few days they kept referring to the 2013 shutdown, almost frothing at the mouth and implying that this one is merely "getting even".
