Mourning, Texas-style

Is there any precedent for a sitting American President not attending the state funeral of a former President? The Decider (TM) has decided to give the Washington services a miss presumably so he can stay at his country estate in Crawford TX and clear brush.

Is he that pissed off over Ford's statement that the invasion of Iraq was "a mistake"?

Dont' forget that Bushs best friend Rumsfeld was missing as well.
I heard that he could not make due to weather....

He was probably just busy job hunting.
