NBC’s Maria Shriver Offers Fawning Profile of “Overnight Sensation” Wendy Davis
Life News ^ | 1-16-14 | Kyle Drennan

In a glowing profile of Texas state senator and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis that amounted to a campaign commercial on Wednesday’s NBC Today, correspondent Maria Shriver proclaimed:

“Wendy Davis became a familiar name last year when she stood in her pink tennis shoes for eleven hours to defeat a Texas abortion bill. Even though the bill eventually passed, Davis became a star. And her story, her personal story, resonated across this country.” [Listen to the audio or watch the video after the jump]

Following footage of cheering Davis supports, Shriver lobbed this ridiculous softball to the Texas abortion heroine: “Everybody says Wendy Davis is an overnight sensation. Does it irritate you that people call you an overnight sensation?” Davis replied: “I’m not an overnight sensation. I’m a Texan. And I’m a Texas success story. I am the epitome of hard work and optimism.”

While teasing Shriver’s upcoming interview with Davis as part of Today’s series on women “doing it all,” co-host Savannah Guthrie described Davis as “a mom who rose from nothing to become a rising political star. ”

Beyond vaguely describing how Davis tried to “defeat a Texas abortion bill,” Shriver failed to ask a single question about the would-be governor’s staunch support for abortion in such a pro-life state.

Wendy Davis is a nazi who loves murdering babies. We’re at war against evil. Time to get tough and paint swastikas on her campaign signs.

Maria Shriver

Wasn't she one of those liberal women who can't keep their husbands happy at home?

Every time I see a picture of Maria Shriver, she looks more and more like the guy who drank from the wrong chalice at the end of "Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade".

Next thing there should be a voice-over announcing that "she chose poorly..."
