Whoopi Goldberg, has come under fire for rushing to the defense of besieged actor Mel Gibson whose racist audio rants have made headlines.
“Being a black woman, you’d think you would give me a little bit of leeway to have some feelings if I was around a racist,” said Whoopi on ‘The View’ yesterday.
But Whoopi suffers from that same social disorder that affected Oprah Winfrey and Michael Jackson: self hate.
Once certain black folk achieve a measure of success in the white man’s world, they suddenly forget they are black.
Whoopi has a history of dating only white men, so why should we believe a word she says?
“There has been a lot of hassle … in the media recently about moi because I had the audacity to say that I had some personal time with Mel that goes over years and years and said that I did not think of him as a racist,” Whoopi began on ‘The View’ today.
“If you had actually watched the show, you would have heard us say, and you would have heard me specifically say, ‘I don’t condone this. I don’t think this is right, I don’t think this is smart. But here’s the piece of information that I have. My experience tells me that this is not a racist,'” she continued.

Meanwhile, Gibson, whose racist audio rants against his baby mama Oksana Grigorieva were caught on tape, continues to find work in Hollywood despite the claims that his career is over.
He’s currently working on a Jodie Foster-directed film that is still in post-production even after the audio tapes began leaking. “Mel was in complete shock,” an inside source tells the NY Post, who calls Foster a friend of Gibson’s. “Everyone was walking on eggshells around him. It was the weirdest set ever.”
