Junkgate
I just came across the term Junkgate on Mediaite and don't recall ever seeing it before (full credit to Ray Rahman). Anyone else think this would be an excellent all-encompassing term for the current debacle?

I saw it a day or two ago. I think it's kind of stupid how "-gate" gets appended to some buzzword. I'd much rather see it referred to as domestic terrorism.

I am also not a fan of the -gate suffix. My coworkers and I are calling the opting out process "gate rape."
