WASHINGTON (AP) — A spokesman says former President George W. Bush is skipping the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., next month.

Bush spokesman Freddy Ford says the 43rd president is enjoying his time off the political stage and respectfully has declined the party's invitation to attend the event.

Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney will formally be nominated at the convention.

Bush's father, former President George H.W. Bush, earlier this week also declined to attend.

The two former presidents have endorsed Romney.

Good stuff, people!

I believe (and thanks for asking!) that Bush can't stand the fact that he didn't abolish the 22nd amendment with one of his virile, omnipotent signing statements when he had the chance and he had a dutiful AG to opine (and a Supreme Court majority to support) that it was in the president's power to do so.

Walking tall among former subordinates (who no longer quake because the ground no longer shakes) would be too damaging to his childish ego self portrait. And, the man doesn't have a gracious bone in his coke, booze and alternative lifestyle-ravished body.

If G.W. thought he had enough support he'd step up to the mike and upstage the lessers seeking the nomination while fully expecting the SCOTUS to rule that the nuisance amendment is "superfluous".

"Listen boys, just let me run and I guarantee that when I win the court will uphold this courageous step, and I promise that I will once again help Americans put food on their families."
