* CriticalResearchFailure: An in-universe example. Leo erroneously states that this would be "the first time a president has ever been censured". In actuality, as Josh points out, Andrew Jackson was censured in 1834 for withholding documents pertinent to his defunding of the Federal Bank. And as Bartlet later points out, it was later rescinded in 1837.

* HypocriticalHumor: Josh, on approaching Amy Gardner to ask her out:
-->'''Josh:''' Well, I'm a straight shooter. I think my record's pretty clear on that. I'd like to see her again.\\
'''Toby:''' ... Call her.\\
'''Josh:''' And ask her out?\\
'''Toby:''' Yeah.\\
'''Josh:''' No, no, because there's the potential she says "no" and then I have to move some place where it'll never be spoken of again. I need to come in under the cover of business.\\
'''Toby:''' ... Because you're a straight shooter.\\
'''Josh:''' Yeah!
