Above is a picture of Mike McNaughton of Denham Springs, LA. He stepped on a land mine in Afghanistan Christmas 2002. President Bush came to visit the wounded in the hospital. He told Mike that when he could run a mile that they would go on a run together. True to his word, he called Mike every month or so to see how he was doing. Well, last week they went on the run, 1 mile with the president. Not something you'll see in the news, but seeing the president taking the time to say thank you to the wounded and to give hope to one of my best friends was one of the greatest/best things I have seen in my life. It almost sounds like a corny email chain letter, but God bless him.

You may want to pass this to everyone you know. The media is pulling every dirty trick in the book to undermine our president's popularity in the polls. Let's join together and be all the media our president needs to get the truth out to the public about who he really is! Blessings to all.
I'd never expect to see the Frenchurian candidate do anything like this!
The liberal press will cover it, without mentioning it, when they include the minutes spent toward Bush's total "vacation" time taken. Obviously, running around is a leisure time activity. /sarcasm
Awesome...and you'd NEVER see our President use this to promote his campaign.
Darling, can you purchase me a new toy to play with? May I have a Ocean liner? I want to show the crowd that I am down with them. |
In fairness to the Liberal Press, this happened in April.

I don't recall whether they covered it back then, but I don't expect they'll bring it up now.
I can't picture ANY Democrat doing this. Certainly none of the Dems in various high offices or candidates for such office.
