You boys are hysterical. BTW, proper usage, not GOP usage:

When he is down to criticizing your grammar, you won.

"Democrat" the way he used it is used as a pejorative by Republicans.
It's not grammar, per se; it's a slur.

Only to people who are looking for a reason to be offended.

Perhaps it is just because some people have trouble calling some of

I do find it ironic that the people most offended by "democrat" being
used as an adjective are the ones most opposed to democracy.

I didn't think so.

Bottom line is: Democrats are not necessarily democratic.
