Why should he feel the need to apologize for portraying a man, a former general and president, who served his country to the best of his ability?

He's not.

He's apologizing for playing a Yankee.

Robert Duval was born in San Diego and played Robert Lee. I suppose if he runs for office he'll have to apologize for playing a rebel.

He's "played a yankee" in probably half a dozen films.
