If the President of the United States were to ask any American to come to the White House for recognition, it would have to take one of two reasons to decline: a very close friend or relative is dying and needs us, or the particular President is unworthy of any respect. Any other event can be rescheduled. As far as anyone can tell, no one near Mr. Brady is dying.

Perhaps he is simply using good judgement? He has been to the White House and met Presidents before.

Perhaps he quietly feels he would be unable to control his anger at Mr. Obama and decided it was better to stay home than make a scene.

It could be trash night where he lives, which means he needs to change the cat's litter box. That's more important (or more exciting at least) than meeting with Obama.

It's not clear what Brady's prior commitment was.

Maybe Mr. Brady had to wash his hair and was too classy to mention reason #2.
