If I were to take a comparable contrarian point, I might say that Christians are delusional child-abusers that should either be institutionalized or inprisoned accordingly, and they should pay reparations for all of the crimes committed in their name by surrending their belongs and serving the groups they have violated. This is essential because the US generally calls itself a Christian nation and, directly and indirectly, has caused the deaths of countless people (hundreds of thousands in Iraq alone) in the name of creating a "democracy" while propping up dictatorships because they serve our self-interests -- and our crimes are worse than by so-called terrorists because our relative wealth means we are better equipped to deal with adversity, and in many cases we have compelled them to behave this way.
Keep in mind that this is not my own viewpoint, but I think it illustrates something comparable to the VP's expression (if not her original statement that got her fired, then her response as included in this article). And I'm pretty sure that if I was a VP espousing these views, I'd be fired, too. One could probably stick around as faculty with those views, but high-level management seems to have an obligation to be more diplomatic in their expression, so as to avoid making the school a hostile environment to faculty and students. An administrator seems to compromise their job when they expresses their views in a way that has an adverse impact on others.
