Rumble in the jungle 2

So, I have a question regarding the televising the debate.

My understanding is that only CNN carried it. Not the major networks. Therefore,you had to have cable or internet access to view it. And if you had neither - you couldn't watch it and had to rely on the next day's news recap of the event. Is that right?

I just RTM you for harassment.... Originally Posted by themystic

No wonder you're such a popular guy on eccie!

Warren just said "I remember when people said Donald Trump can't get elected..."

nearly spit out some rather expensive Dewar's...

But hey, it was their biggest audience in 20yrs.

The national anthem...what a surprise. Of course Williamson and the giant didn't know how to honor the flag. Williamson decided to join the herd but the giant decided to tough it out.

The rules and opening statements

Bullock I'm a progressive and a liberal
Williamson I'm going to quote the constitution and say that I'm starting my own religion...with a sexy voice
Delaney universal healthcare and a regular guy...who was also a CEO of a wall street brokerage house
Ryan where are the great jobs that we used to have
Hickenlooper I used to be unemployed until I started my own company
Klobachar. I'm union through and through, Trump is a racist, I'm a winner
O'Rourke I stand for everyone on pay, education, war, and climate change
Mayor Pete. Trump cheated to get into office, we only have 12years left, and women will loose the choice
Warren. I hate Trump, Trump is part of a rigged system (no, not the DNC)
Sanders. Healthcare costs too much, people are on the street, and Amazon pays no taxes. Trump is a racist.



Healthcare-- Bernie, Canada has better healthcare and Delaney is wrong to want keep private healthcare.

Delaney, people like to be able to choose their healthcare.

Sanders, the people are wrong.

Warren, I want to put my two cents in, I have a friend and he is sick...

Senator, your time is up

Senator, are you in favor of higher taxes for everyone to pay for healthcare

Warren, the rich can pay for Medicare for all

Bullocks, healthcare is personal, I'm not going to force anyone to give up their healthcare

Mayor Pete, let's do both and see what works,I'm not going to answer the tax question either

Beto, no, I will not raise taxes on the middle-class

........screw these clowns Originally Posted by the_real_Barleycorn

L17 - Amen!!

Personal life

She has a brother, Randy James Myers, with whom she has sometimes written songs. In the mid 1960s, she was a companion of Jimmy Page and dated Love guitarist Bryan MacLean. It is likely that Page wrote the song "Tangerine" (which appeared on the third Led Zeppelin album) after the breakup of his relationship with DeShannon in early 1965.[16]
Her first husband was Liberty Records executive Irving "Bud" Dain, whom she married on January 29, 1966 (annulled in 1967).[17] DeShannon has been married to singer/songwriter and film composer Randy Edelman since 1976. They have one son, Noah (born 1978).[17]



So ... was this before or after she married Randy Edelman in 1976?
