Right time for US to apologize for slavery?

President Bush just recently said that the US should have sent bombers to Auschwitz in WWII to prevent the extermination of Jews there. I agree with him. If we knew what was happening there, it was a moral crime to do nothing as we did. Clearly slavery was a moral crime as well. Is it now the right time for the US to give an offical apology for slavery? Keep in mind some states like Virginia and New Jersey have already issued their apologies for slavery.
