The White House press corps has a language all of its own.

As well as formal press conferences, the journalists talk to the President's spokesman in a daily "gaggle."

When they want to know the chronology of an event, they ask for the "tick tock."

When Bush or Kerry leaves a location, they don't just take off -- they go "wheels up."

It's English -- but not as we know it.
