President Bush (news - web sites) runs with Army Staff Sergeant Michael McNaughton, of Denham Springs, La., on the South Lawn of the White House Wednesday, April 14, 2004. The two met January 17, 2003, at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, where SSgt. McNaughton was recovering from wounds sustained in Afghanistan (news - web sites). The President then wished SSgt. McNaughton a speedy recovery so that they might run together in the future. (AP Photo/The White House. Eric Draper)

Do you think * would have agreed to running with Sergeant McNaughton if there were not cameras around. At least this guy was wounded in Afghanistan because if he had been wounded in Iraq that would have been just wrong. Nonetheless it seems even the wounded soldiers are viewed as photo ops.
