Here is most accurate headline for this article:

“Lobbyist pays obeisance to plutocrat.”

No one should attend this fiasco- It is just another Trump self-aggrandizing stunt.  If this does occur, I would not be surprised if Trump asked the candidates ” Don’t you think Donald Trump would make a great president?”

Newt and the Donald can rub bellies and measure belly button depth.

“If Trump wants to be taken seriously by Republicans, he needs to quit Celebrity Apprentice and apologize to the Iowa GOP.

“If he gets his act together, President Paul might consider getting his advice on fixing our country’s financial situation. We understand Donald has a lot of experience with bankruptcy.”

- Jesse Benton, Campaign Manager for Ron Paul

Don’t you love farce?

where are the clowns,
send in the clowns,
don’t bother they’re here.

I suppose if you see this “debate” as entertainment  rather than serious that’s okay. At least when a candidate goes on SNL it’s obviously in fun.

If you don’t like it, don’t watch it.  Why is this any different than any other debate?  George Stephanapolous, a well known democrat operative who is famous for the nuts and sluts defense of Slick Willy, can host a debate, why not the Donald?  Wolf Blitzer who has Kermit the frog on as a guest can host a debate, why not the Donald?  Katie Couric can ask Obama what his favorite colour is, and if he needs another pillow, and she is deemed as a viable debate moderator?

Come on.

Yes.  I love this.  I can’t wait to see what SNL, Stewart, Colbert do with this “debate”/Trump advertisement.

It will be hilarious!

did he just compare donald trump to bill gates? LMFAO

Yes, I’m sure SNL, Stewart, Colbert are your only news sources.

Entertainment is MSNBC.

Oh yes!  I was starting to worry that all the republiklan candidates would refuse to participate in this freak show. 

Prediction:  Winner of this debate–Barack Obama–he has been the winner of all 77 republiklan debates.

Gingrich: “I would want to go just for the entertainment value… I can’t imagine what a debate hosted by Donald Trump would be like.”

I guess using the same logic, he’d attend a debate moderated by Kim Kardashian.

You really don’t live in the real world, do you?

Of course he’ll be there….he’s after the crazy birther vote.  Newt’s shrewd, but yet, still disgusting.

Snappy comeback.

All thanks to the GOP

Newt Gingrich is the
shooting-star-of-the-month Republican candidate for president. He’s proclaimed
himself the front runner based on the polls; and it must be true because all
the other Republican candidates have begun criticizing him. But can the chubby,
twice divorced, former Speaker of the House with an attitude and a record in
politics longer than Moses’ trek in the desert win the Republican nomination
and the 2012 election? The answer to both questions is yes, and here’s why.  http://ewross.com/can_newt_gingrich_win_the_nomination_and_the_election.htm

Does the first to RSVP win the birther vote, or does that belong to the winner debate?  The reality TV feel of the rest of the debates was bad enough, but to include Trump turns this from a charade to outright farce.  I love a good debate, guys, but this is going to be pathetic.  I feel like Trump is literally about to turn all the participants into reality show contestants.  The Republican Party can do better than this!  What happened to real debates with real respectable journalists hosting the evening?  This is just frankly embarrassing.

Is this a joke?

Further evidence that the Republicanteepartee has become a caricature of itself. I look forward to the re-election of Barak Obama.  These idiots couldn’t beat my dog in a general election.  Unfortunately, in the process, these Republicanteepartee idiots do more damage to the reputation and character of the United States of America than anyone else.  

I don’t find Fox or MSNBC all that entertaining or informative, so I stopped watching them some time ago. 

More proof Newt is a fool!! Furthermore, anyone who believes Newt is a great “idea man” should review their own thinking on the issue!!

“It’d be like if Bill Gates called and said, ‘Hi, I’d like to host a debate.’”

No, Newtron…it would not be like that.

More proof that Newt has his finger two inches away from the self destruct button at all times. 

He’s gonna look really smart when all the other candidates call BS on this travesty.

And they will.

Epic Fail.

At this point, if the other candidates have any brains, they will all refuse to show, and cut Newt off at the knees.  Newt will look like a moron for rushing to be the first to put his lips on Trump’s unit.

The LAST person I want to hear from is Frump.  What are they going for…the Orange People vote?  Frump, a serial bankrupter, is THE symbol of all that is wrong with crony capitalism.  This skank corrodes every business he touches, and then declares bankruptcy again.  Very bad move for those fools who attend the Frump session.  I knew there was a reason I liked Paul and Huntsman.

Oh shut up.The day Republicans accept liberals’ advice on enything….This is going to be the highest rated show on Earth,so you libs can eat your hearts out

I don’t know Mark.
Did you ever think as many (R) candidates have looked for Trump approval.
Did you ever think we would have the current Reality Show?

Can’t do Cable News any more.

ON EARTH

Exactly what I was thinking, Romney should wait until the last minute to decline and just leave Gingrich, Bachmann and possibly Perry to make themselves look like idiots. 

You are aware that watchers of Colbert’s comedy show actually know more about the “news” and “issues” than “Faux” News viewers.

Lookin’ For A Trump Bump

The debate is hosted by a globalist hump
Who goes by the name of Donald Trump
Newt and Mitt will be there
To adore the Donald’s hair
And hopefully get the idiot vote’s bump!

Yes, this world’s getting way too bizarre
Like Clinton’s Monica moistening his cigar.
Next thing you know
They’ll have a new show
Where the Candidates must Dance With A Star!

This debate should be fun for America to see
Watching Donald give the field the third degree
It’s the next inevitable step
In America’s ongoing schlepp
Toward establishing a true Idiotocracy!

Gingrich is right.

Trump the Liar is a lot like Bill Gates -  If Gates did zero to earn his money, inherited gazillions from his daddy, mismanaged his businesses, filed for multiple bankruptcies and was forced to eke out a living to maintain his egotistical standard of living.

And Gates isn’t a birther and doesn’t make shit up about Hawaiiian Birther Task Force investigators that supposedly found ‘amazing things.”

Any candidate ho agrees to the Birther Debate should be heavily ridiculed by the media.

Will Trump the liar finally release his promised tax returns at this event. Or reveal the ‘amazing things’ he said were found by his birther investigators?
And will the starstruck media bother to call him out on being a pathological liar?

I believe voters deserve and expect every opportunity for substantive debate on policy and issues. Mr. Trump is arguably an exceptional American, but his participation here allows critics the opportunity to chastise the entire event based on his “political baggage”.  As well, with Trump still threatening a Third Party run, it compromises what’s left of the integrity of this process.

It is up to voting Americans to prove to the candidates for our highest office that we DEMAND higher standards from them and this process. Please sign this online petition to show the candidates we are serious about our country, our issues, and them — and hope they would show us the same respect.

Newt’s internal monologue: Donald Trump is called the biggest asshat in the GOP, we’ll see about that!

maybe Obama will finally release his college transcrips at the same event

Newt, trust me. It’s *not* like Bill Gates called you.

Bill Gates is never going to call you.

And of course this highlights those other buttons he’d have his fingers close to if — through some huge cosmic accident — he ended up in the White House.

I loved that “PERP” walk on wall st of the crooks that looted our country from AIG, Lehman, and Bear Stearns! That was awesome! American Justice! OOPS! It never happened! I guess ERIC HOLDER was too busy selling weapons to the Mexican drug cartels. Didnt have time to investigate wall st crooks….. Maxine Waters husband owns a small bank that received 20 million in TARP funds. Charlie Rangel tax evasion? Kerry and his boat docking scandal saving 500,000 docking it in different state than where he lives? Corzine missing 1.5 billion in investor money. Obama wasteing 2 years forcing Obamacare down our throats instead of jobs bills and deficit reform. Pelosi and her husband using insider trading to loot our country. Many other politicians doing the same. And who could forget tim geitners OOPS! I under-payed my taxes? And who could forget the male call-boy service being run out of Barney Franks condo? There all the same ethically. DEN OF THIEVES! But Newt is worse? I think not! Ill vote for him, twice if I can get away with it. Hes the perfect match to preside over that den of thieves!

People do like to watch a train wreck, and it will be great to see the GOP embarrassment reach a huge audience. Obama will win this thing by default.

Graders are just as stupid as birthers.

When YOU capitalize random WORDs, it makes you LOOK even more INSANE!!!!

We’ve witnessed his performance “consulting” Freddie Mac. Newt is no better, nor worse than the rest. He’s the status quo. I’d have to write someone in as a protest to the whole election.

2 Morons debating & bring in a chimpanzee!! My money is on the chimp.
