Here’s a AP report on the visit
When it’s boiled down to this, it seems like the Obama’s got the bum’s rush from the Queen.
During their private meeting, President Obama and first lady gave the queen a personalized iPod with video footage of her 2007 visit to Washington and Virginia. She was also given a rare songbook signed by composer Richard Rodgers.
In return the queen and her husband, Prince Philip, gave the Obamas signed portrait of themselves.
