Terrance Martin, Aged 7, Corrects Bush
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Young Terrance Martin could not let President Bush get away with mistakenly saying he was just 6 years old when he was really 7.
It happened in the Roosevelt Room at the White House on Tuesday when Bush signed the Adoption Promotion Act of 2003, which renews tax credits for adoptions and encourages families to find homes for more than 500,000 children in foster care.
Before signing the legislation Bush talked about the need for more adoptions as he stood with Christopher and Diana Martin and their seven children, four of them adopted.
Terrance interrupted the president in mid-speech under the glaring television lights to point out he was not 6.
"How old are you?" Bush asked.
"Seven," said Terrance.
"OK, seven," said Bush, as the crowd chuckled. "I'll take it up with the fact-checker."
