Whoa, Mrs Ahhhnuld was on same yakker show with Meagan Mc5PLANEs, after Mc5's Manchurian episode
Edited on Sun Oct-17-10 10:05 AM by UTUSN
Both were featured on This Weak, not in the same segments, who knows whether they were taped separately. Was Meagan the child in question when Maria's (camera crew?) jostled Mc5PLANE and his then little daughter the night he lost the primaries to Shrub?!1 Was it Cristiane or some evil (and old) producers having subliminal juks at the programming?!1

.... (Larry) KING: What happened with Maria Shriver?

SEN. JOHN MCCAIN (R), ARIZONA: Well, we were walking down this very narrow area in order to give the speech of the night of Super Tuesday, and she jumped out in front of my wife and bumped into my daughter and yelled, how do you feel? And I said, please, please, let us alone, I think is somewhat along the line. I did say please.

I just thought that it was not appropriate the way that she approached it.

But look, I'm sure that Ms. Shriver was trying to do her job, and I hope she understood that I was trying to go down at a very difficult moment. And I obviously didn't -- hope she appreciated I didn't appreciate one of my children being bumped into. ....

KING: You bumped into him?

SHRIVER: I didn't, but I appreciate his understanding that I was doing my job.

KING: You didn't bump into anybody?

SHRIVER: I didn't bump into anybody. And -- but I understand that that was a difficult night for him, and I was there doing my job. I was at the end of a corridor, where, you know, the senator and his family came walking down. So I didn't jump out from a bush or I didn't jump out from a wall and go, woo, look, here I am. ....

...you know, I think a lot of people made a huge deal out of that incident.

KING: They sure did.

SHRIVER: They did. And I think that that's because there had been so much discussion about his supposed temper. But I had no hard feelings toward him and I was glad...

KING: Was he ill-tempered toward you?

SHRIVER: Well, I think he wasn't happy about it. But I don't -- I don't judge him on that. I don't think he's -- you know, it's not the first time I've been yelled at by somebody and I doubt it will be the last. ... .... ...Case closed.

Here's the Maria treasury. Item #1, from 2000, has some priceless time-capsule tidbits about McCAIN's bitterness against Shrub, refusal to endorse Shrub, certainty that GORE would win.

.... Still, around him, it kept getting uglier. There was the Maria Shriver incident, for instance. On Tuesday, as the results became apparent, NBC's Shriver parachuted into his hotel at the Beverly Hilton and demanded an interview. McCain, already turning down interviews with bigger names like Tom Brokaw and Dan Rather, not to mention members of his traveling press corps who have followed him for months, demurred. Shriver, not taking no for an answer, stood in a stairway hoping to ambush Super Tuesday's big loser.

According to several witnesses, Shriver got to McCain after his advance man, Lanny Wiles, blocked her path. "She did a Lawrence Taylor pick-and-roll around Lanny," said one Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist.

In the process, Shriver's soundman and cameraman accidentally banged their equipment into Bridget McCain, the senator's adopted 8-year-old daughter. Cindy McCain yelled at Shriver. McCain -- caught on camera -- snapped at her to get out of his way. Shriver got great footage -- the irritable, mercurial, bitter McCain getting angry for no discernible reason.

A McCain staffer managed to keep the footage from being broadcast on "Today" after complaining to NBC honchos of Shriver's behavior. The footage was then dumped at the doorstep of "Entertainment Tonight," which not surprisingly ran it with no compunction -- or context -- whatsoever. "Crazy Angry Bitter John McCain" stories buzzed on "Extra!" and other schlock without mention that he was reacting to Shriver and crew's assault on his daughter. ....

The love between Johnny-Mac and the Governator is nothing new. Maria Shriver once said "I doubt I'll be speaking to him again in the future," referring to McCain... but that was in 1999. McCain has since worked with Ted Kennedy, however, on a comprehensive immigration reform bill that won't likely pass through Congress during the current administration.

What do you think? Will we get 3-way bear hug? Will Maria show up? Is Schwarzenegger going to back McCain all the way?
