I don't see Whoopi as an apologist at all. I think she, like many, just doesn't see this issue in stark black and white. There are shades of grey in most things. And those shades, in this case, are further muddied by time. As usual, we get passionate (almost to the point of getting out the mad villager torches and pitchforks) with out taking a pause. My instinct in these sorts of things is to back off and try to be as dispassionate as possible. I never want to find myself at the heart of mob... or mob-think.
