Why apologize?

Why does this guy, Representative Stark, feel he has to apologize to George Bush for insinuating that Bush enjoys war? Is there really anyone that doubts that this clown wanted nothing more than to go to war that he gets a thrill from being a War President? Remember when the London subway system was hit by those bombs? That day Bush was in full War President mode and you could see how satisfied he was knowing that on that day all he had to do was look resolute and blather pointlessly about war and strength. He gets off on this shit and it's too bad the one person to say it on the floor of the congress has been brow beaten into taking his words back.
