GOP Presidential Candidates, Imma Let You Finish, But…

The White House tweets that President Obama “has requested a Joint Session of Congress at 8 p.m. on 9/7 to lay out his plan to create jobs, grow the economy, and reduce the deficit.”

Was anything else supposed to happen at 8 p.m. on September 7?

The eight qualifying GOP presidential candidates have agreed to attend the Sept. 7 Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation debate… MSNBC will broadcast the debate live from the Reagan library’s Air Force One Pavilion at 8 p.m. ET.

I’m just amazed that Sarah Palin has never thought of this before. (I’ve got a call in to figure out what this does to the debate timing.)
