"I will never apologize for the United States of America. I don't care what the facts are."

If you answer no then for once think before posting this useless crap.

What has what George Bush said 17 years ago have to do with todays world situation?

You need to catch up and start living in the present.

I don't want anyone to think I am partisan. Demmycrat Carter showed he was equal to Papa Bush in publicly trashing the idea of apologizing for war crimes, including in a stunning assessment of the Vietnam War (in bold):

<<< By 1977 President Carter was able to explain in a news conference that Americans have no need "to apologize or to castigate ourselves or to assume the status of culpability" and do not "owe a debt," because our intentions were "to defend the freedom of the South Vietnamese" (by destroying their country and massacring the population), and because "the destruction was mutual" -- a pronouncement that, to my knowledge, passed without comment, apparently being considered quite reasonable. >>>
