It wasn't "rape-rape" that Polanski committed, it was the other kind of rape. The less "rapey" kind that's more ok than the full-on "rape-rape" kind of rape.

Yes, lets not define any borders or nothing and just to be sure, lets just give 'em all a hundred years in a hole for even thinking about it. I think everyone knows what Whoopi meant by "rape,rape".
