He was invited and it was assumed until today he [as with all the living former Presidents] would be there - when he suddenly said his son 'W' would represent him there. It is really quite an insult. In death, it is expected that Party and politics among the leading politicians is just 'dropped'. Many prominent Republicans will be there. I think it is his conscience. I hope W gets booed at the event, frankly.
