An interesting thought experiment is to reverse the sides of everyone and imagine what would happen. Suppose the University of Chicago professor was a well known abortion clinic bomber who stated publicly that regretted that he didn't do more. Now suppose that thousands of college professors around the country signed a petition supporting that professor. What would happen if the college pro-abortion group publicly criticized the faculty members who signed the petition? I propose that the university president would likely support the pro-abortion students and be looking for a way to fire the professors at his university who signed a petition supporting the abortion clinic bomber.

That certainly puts things in perspective. But not in Bizarro World where a neophyte like Obama can be elected leader of the free world.

What if we just do a thought experiment and imagine a world where people don’t feel compelled to use counter-examples like “abortion clinic bombers”? When’s the last time that ever happened (and by a few people never heard from before by pro-life people, at that).
