Holdren says Constitution backs compulsory abortion
WND ^ | 9/22/09 | Jerome Corsi

Posted on 09/22/2009 6:38:28 PM PDT by pissant

Obama science czar John Holdren stated in a college textbook he co-authored that in conditions of emergency, compulsory abortion would be sustainable under the U.S. Constitution, even with Supreme Court review.

WND has obtained a copy of "Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment," published in 1977 and co-authored by Holdren with Malthusian population alarmist Paul R. Ehrlich and Ehrlich's wife, Ann. As WND reported, the authors argued involuntary birth-control measures, including forced sterilization, may be necessary and morally acceptable under extreme conditions, such as widespread famine brought about by "climate change."

To prevent ecological disasters, including "global warming," Holdren argued the U.S. Constitution would permit involuntary abortions, government-imposed sterilizations and laws limiting the number of children as steps justified under the banner of "sustainable well-being."

He thinks slaughtering the innocent is justifiable.

Naw, he's not intending to be first ~ but keep that name in mind ~ if necessary he should be first.

In any such emergency, it won’t be liberals forcing ANYTHING onto conservatives. I’ll guarantee you.

I'm sure glad the founders put the Second Amendment ahead of the sustainable well being amendment.

In reality it could only depend on who sits on SCOTUS

All that would be needed is five “progressive” justices.

“Naw, he’s not intending to be first ~ but keep that name in mind ~ if necessary he should be first.”

Can’t be - he’s far from innocent. And, given that he is far from good, he’s safe from being first. WHy? ‘Cause only the good die young.

This is a patently false claim because it expressly says in our Constitution that we are endowed with unalienable rights and among these are LIFE, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Let us be very clear.

Abortion is ANTI LIFE.

Why the surprise about these progressive views?

There’s absolutely nothing in the Constitution regarding the separation of Moloch and State, so just get over your hangups about infanticide.

Yeah, we already know this Holdren psychopath's story. The American People have already decided that they want a science czar who goes to work for the Heinz Ketchup Company Owners because he imagines secretly sterilizing people through the food supply by uniform mass distribution of the sterilant product.

The authors of the Constitution couldn't have -- in their wildest --imagined the immorality that exists in the WH today.

Like Hitler, they need to clean out all the riff-raff or else all the socialist government programs won't work properly. But once the master race has been purged from all the defectives, the collective will function flawlessly.

Such a stance is not just totally unacceptable, it’s so outrageously evil it shocks the conscience. Holdren must removed, or else Obama must be impeached. We must attach our jaws to this varmint like pit bulls to a burglar’s leg, and not let go until the varmint is removed from any role in government whatsoever.

It is the impulse of those who want absolute control over everyone and everything. For the majority of human history, the “norm” has been that a very few used force to control the masses for their own benefit. It is still the same in most of the world. Our founding fathers understood this and made sure that the common man would be armed in order to make sure that the tyrants would be kept at bay through fear.

My tagline says it all.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of Americans have bought into the belief that violence is wrong, unless it is government approved and authorized violence.

"That’s assuming that conservatives will allow themselves to be disarmed and will never, ever coalesce into a more organized resistance. Big IF."

They've allowed him to sit in the white house and destroy the nation, without even showing his birth certificate. They've allowed him to literally steal our childrens' and great grandchildrens' money. And they are allowing him and others before him to slowly sign away our sovereignty and control of our land, and signing away our freedoms and subjecting us to be ruled by an unelected non-representative foreign global governance.

Doesn't seem likely that they will be able to prevent themselves from being disarmed either.

"If I hear of a counter-movement that’s more than talk and sign-waving, I’ll believe it."

Me too.

sorry but they do not have an obsession with killing unless it’s the innocent. Given terrorists...we can’t kill them, we send them to Buermuda on a vacation.... People on death row.....obviously innocent souls who were sent there through the efforts of a biased, racist jury....best to let them go

Unless we force these traitors to face justice, they will.

We need a couple million armed tea toddlers dragging well stocked coolers to seize NY’s airport and take this country back.
But it seems they have more guts in Indonesia where far fewer faced much greater danger of being shot by their dictatorship government, yet they got rid of their corrupt president.

The statment regarding us being endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights, including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is actually in the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution.

But in the 5th and 14th amendment to the Constitution the specific language is included that no citizen would be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.

The problem is, Holdren is just one of many that need to be removed. Much like the Hydra, this evil is multi-headed.

No, I think the very FACT that each and every one of Zero’s advisors is, in one way or another, pure evil in their radical ideology, should be grounds for impeachment alone.... if not the FACT that he intends to pull out of Afghanistan and lose that war, despite his lying rhetoric to the contrary BEFORE the election. Pissing off each and every ally of the US is another reason. The whole ball of wax that IS Obama is just putrid from the inside out. And his lies should be grounds for impeachment by ANY standard, even the non-existant, if not double-standard, of the DemocRats.
