He will not apologies at this time. Once another president takes his place he might. If he apologizes now, he shows weakness: in himself, the country, and most importantly the troops. The need good moral here in the USA so they will stay positive over "there".

He could desire to ask for forgiveness to the international for his conflict crimes. yet he could desire to be pleased with having his daddy worst enemy. He could desire to step as much as the plate and say i'm the single the place the greenback stops, and be tried as an common conflict criminal

You sound like a liberal which means you could care less about the troops and just want to blast the president

Politicians aren't really good at apologising....it shows a sense of humanity, honesty and integrity.....you've probably got more chance of him apologising to his masters for not wasting billions of dollars more on bringing death and destruction to the world.

Thanks for the laughs . I wasn't aware that delusion could breed humor . One of the things you hope for in a leader is that your National Security will be secure . And you like to take for granted your elected leader won't betray your country with the enemy . Thank God John Kerry wasn't elected . We have THE RIGHT MAN IN OFFICE FOR THE JOB . GO "W" !!!!!!

Bush will apologize when it snows in Texas on July 4 and hell freezes over at the same time. That egotistical maniacal bastard doesn't know the meaning of apologize and wouldn't do it if his life depended upon it.
