Apparently Bush launched into a rather long-winded speech about the significance of the Oval Office. Brittany - usually a bundle of giggles - got antsy, complained she was bored, then started to cry…
After the meeting, the president called Brittany over to him for a one-on-one chat.
"He apologized for being so boring and gave her a presidential pin," [Brittany’s stepfather James DeMore] said.

"I'm really the Bush supporter of the house," he said. "Patty's a Democrat."
