What is it going to take to restart the US Government after the shutdown, and what does it all mean?

Republicans in 2013:  "I'm almost giddy thinking about a government shutdown next year. I cannot wait"

Find me an equivalent quote from Democrats in 2017-18. 

That quote is from a blogger / radio host ... should I take everything that Stephen Colbert or Trevor Noah puts out as representative of Democrats? This will be fun...

That's almost a good point.  You could have had a really good conterpoint except you couldn't be satisfied with "that's not a congressperson saying that" and you had to go and compare left-leaning comedians with allegedly serious Republican bloggers.  Were you going to find a quote of them being serious? or are Democratic jokes comparable to serious Republican thought? 

But never mind.  The point you could have made still stands regardless.  Here you have a chance to actually help me out.  Michelle Bachmann said, "It's exactly what we wanted, and we got it. People will be very grateful."  She later disputed the context of the quote, which was allegedly speaking of the shutdown.  The full quote by Bachmann appears to be that she is not happy about the shutdown per se but happy about making the demand that prompted the shutdown (that she knew would prompt a shutdown). 
“This is exactly what we had hoped for. A full one year delay, a full year defunding. It is a full delay of one year of the taxes, a full delay of the funding including all the advertising. It’s exactly what we asked for and we got it. So we’re very excited. That’s why I think we can all vote.”
It's a fine distinction but a significant one.  I have not yet been able to find a transcript of the full context of the quote, but I have been able to find an audio clip; however, the person who asked for comment is very hard to hear.

Can you figure out what the full context is? 

Anyway, she wasn't the only one excited about trying to kill Obamacare, which was the cause of the shutdown.  John Culberson also reportedly said, "It's wonderful. We're 100 percent united!"
