I've written about Obama's mind-boggling cast of pro-abortion characters in the past.  The list has certainly continued to grow since then.  As this administration is assembled, it has gone from predictable to shocking to downright scary.  It is a staggering list of abortion radicals, pretend Catholics, euthanasia lawyers, porn lawyers, NARAL lawyers, Planned Parenthood, Emily's List and NOW board members... people who defend child pornography and compare pregnancy to slavery.  At staff meetings, lone pro-lifer Ray Lahood (Transportation Secretary) must feel like Michelle Duggar at a Darth Vader convention. 

Well, just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, enter John Holdren, Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy.

The press is finally picking up on some terrifying information published by Holdren, revealing why he fits the mold for a perfect Obama nomination.  Here is some info by Peter J. Smith at Lifesitenews.com.  Brace yourself.

Earlier in February, FrontPage magazine had first revealed that Holdren had proposed a number of dispassionate prescriptions for a ruthless population control program that could be applied to the United States in a 1977 published book entitled, "Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment." Holdren co-authored the work with population control advocates Paul and Anne Ehrlich with the central premise that governments may curtail individual human rights "where society has a 'compelling, subordinating interest' in regulating population size."

Examples put forward by the authors include the possibility of forced abortion to meet population quotas, sterilizing populations through intentionally tainting the water-supply with infertility drugs, mandating unwed and teen mothers to chose between abortion or giving their children up for adoption, and the imposition of a "Planetary Regime" to enforce policies of population control, with one enforcement mechanism being a global transnational police force.

"Indeed, it has been concluded that compulsory population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society," wrote Holdren on page 837.

Holdren defends that assertion on the next page by stating that "neither the Declaration of Independence nor the Constitution mentions a right to reproduce" and that for the survival of society, a government could both coerce women to have children as well as force them to abort.

Large families are a particular target of Holdren and the Ehrlichs, who write that parents of such families "contribute to general social deterioration by overproducing children" and "can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility."

Holdren advances several ideas for coercive fertility control. He states (pp. 786-7) that "sterilizing women after their second or third child" may be more practicable than sterilizing men, proposes a "long-term sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin" at puberty and then "might be removable, with official permission, for a limited number of births."

I've never read Aldous Huxley's A Brave New World, but that's certainly what comes to mind with this guy.

Holdren and his eugenics certainly fit right in with Obama's Planned Parenthood cronies.  Their founder, Margaret Sanger, was a well-known eugenicist who spoke of eliminating the black race.  Another dirty little secret... Sanger and her colleagues received letters of admiration from another powerful world leader:  Adolf Hitler.
