THE name of President George W Bush has been added to an internet "hit list" compiled by anti-abortion campaigners after his decision to allow federal funding for limited human embryo stem-cell research.
The Nuremberg Files website has been accused of inciting violence against doctors and medical staff involved in abortions. The main section, called Baby Butchers and Butchered, lists 421 names - plus addresses, car registration numbers and family details - of abortion practitioners and their "accomplices".
Those who are dead - mostly women who have died as a result of a pregnancy termination - have a line scored through their names. The list of "fatalities" also includes Dr Barnett Slepian, a gynaecologist shot dead at his home near Buffalo, New York, by an anti-abortion protester in 1998.
Mr Bush is a staunch opponent of abortion. His first executive order on entering the White House in January banned international agencies from using American funds to pay for abortion services in developing countries, a move that delighted his conservative supporters.
Despite this clear stand, the Nuremberg Files website, it emerged last week, has targeted him as "a living embodiment of the fact that a Christian might live on Earth in the here and now as an evil collaborator with baby-butchers whose conscience has been totally defiled by the wiles of Satan".
The inclusion of the American leader comes after his decision last month to approve the use of taxpayers' money for limited research involving human embryonic stem cells, which many scientists believe could lead to cures for a range of diseases.
Many anti-abortionists applauded Mr Bush's decision to restrict federally-funded research to 60 "lines" of embryonic stem cells already being grown, so that further embryos are not destroyed for research purposes.
Some were furious, however, that he did not impose the outright ban that he appeared to promise during his election campaign. Neal Horsley, the site's creator, told an anti-abortion news service: "Bush's stem-cell research decision is a covenant with the Devil."
Some influential anti-abortion groups are unhappy about the hit list. Olivia Gans, of the National Right to Life Committee, said some people who looked at the Nuremberg Files were "mentally disturbed".
The site has adopted the name of the German city where Nazi leaders were tried for war crimes. Leading supporters of abortion or those described as "their mouthpieces" are all accused of "crimes against humanity" and anti-abortionists are urged to gather evidence against them for use in a future trial.
Earlier this year, a federal court ruled that closing the website would breach the American constitutional right to free speech.

As I've also said before, Bush has mortally offended a lot of people with this stupid decision. Like Roe v. Wade it's something that will never go away. The Democrats and the body-part salesmen will keep bringing it back up and chipping away at it until he or his successor gives in again. It will lose Bush a substantial number of votes in the next election.
If they are being legally slaughtered, then it is not nurder. Murder is an unlawful killing.

Anyone who doesn't know that Neil Horsely wouldn't mind a little violence against the people he names hasn't heard him.
He was on FOXNEWS last Thursday, and accused John Gibson of complicity in murder because Gibson didn't feature pictures of aborted babies on his show.
Horsely may have a right to free speech, but I'll bet he's already been visited by the Secret Service, and they're going to watch him like a hawk.
Horsely does as much damage to the pro-life movement with stuff like this and the "abortion webcam" as Kate Michaelman does.
It will gain him 50 votes for every one lost. Everyone has loved ones whose lives could be saved.
Is it evil, is it wrong, maybe but that has never stopped people before.
The Government can get in the game now, and exert some small amount of control, or they can stay out, and the work will be done in third world countries by pharmaceutical companies with no scruples but the bottom line
That is the real choice. The Genie is out of the bottle and this will not be stopped.

If we are going to use the standard of 'unlawful in God's eyes' then we must leave all judgement and punishment to God.
If the judgement and punishment are to be here and now, then they must be by man's agreed laws. For whose interpretation of Gods laws is to be authoratative?
Yours? or mine?

I Bush obviously violated the principles of legitimate human medical research. But as important as violating the Nuremberg precedents is, there is another component to Bush's decision that has literally world-changing consequences. Not only does Bush ignore the Nuremberg precedents, his decision confuses people about a fundamental tenet of the Christian faith; namely, that people, all people, were bought and paid for by Jesus Christ, and are His actual legal possession whether they like it or not, or whether they know it or not. This question of who actually owns human beings has been egregiously confused by George W. Bush's catastrophic mistake. George Bush is enormously confusing because he claims to be a Christian. Nobody really gets confused when clearly Satanic and demon-possessed people like Bill Clinton make clear they think that human beings are nothing more than objects created to fulfill Bill Clinton's personal hungers and felt needs. But when someone like George W. Bush, who the public actually thinks is a Christian, begins to treat human beings as commodities owned by we the people, then massive and fatal confusion is created. Here's why people get confused: A Christian is expected to act in harmony with Jesus Christ. Obviously no Christian does that all the time; that's why confession of sin is so important to a Christian's ability to avoid confusing the world about Jesus Christ. Now if the Christian does something wrong but acts like they think they're doing the right thing, the public logically thinks Jesus Christ would have acted the same way. To put George W. Bush's decision in perspective, ask yourself this question: Do you think Jesus Christ is indifferent or even in favor of people, under any circumstances whatsoever, being bought and sold as commodities? Before you wade in and declare that it is preposterous to think that Jesus Christ would allow people being bought and sold as slaves, consider this: It is a historical fact that before the War Between the States in 1861, a huge coalition of the most educated Christian theologians in the USA were persuaded that Holy Scripture taught that God Almighty was noncommittal on the question of human slavery. Furthermore, internationally acclaimed leaders of antebellum Christian culture taught that, given the stone-age conditions, impoverishment and, in their opinions, almost bestial conditions in which Africans lived on the African continent, that it was arguably a totally positive thing to bring Africans to live in the United States of America as chattel slaves. Could it be that WASP Christians like George W. Bush might be genetically predisposed in the flesh to take human beings and turn them into slaves? Virtually every pre-Civil War Slave-Holding Southern Aristocrat was a professing Christian exactly like George W. Bush. And this point has been duly recorded. The world knows full well that WASP Christians like George W. Bush come from a long line of Christians who historically justified anything that could be pragmatically seen to be necessary for either their financial, political or physical survival. One thing is for certain, George W. Bush's stemcell decision has opened the floodgates for a thriving human body parts sales enterprise that is going to make somebody many millions of dollars. And no wonder. Bush justified his decision by saying the people who the stem cells belonged to were already dead and their stem cells would be wasted if not put to use. The same thing could have been said about the eyeballs of the kid we executed for the Oklahoma City bombing. Those eyeballs were in really good condition and would have no doubt been enormously helpful in allowing some vision impaired person to see. Now that Bush has established, through his stemcell precedent, the principle that Jesus Christ does not require people to give their consent for their body parts to be used after their death, we can begin harvesting body parts not only from executed criminals but from any person killed in an accident. Consent is no longer a fundamental prerequisite. All that is required is the living must be able to benefit from the harvested body parts. Given the Bush family's well-documented ability to profit from financial opportunities, it will be interesting to see what stock is added to their portfolio in the years ahead. Obviously I will not be popular for saying these things. I can already hear quote pro-life people saying that Bush was not talking about harvesting the body parts of adults, but of children below the age of consent. In that case, the quote pro-life people say, their parents were legally allowed to give the required consent. Can you not see that idea opens the door to the pits of hell? Don't you know that there is a huge pool of parents who would start popping out embryos and fetuses and even partial birth aborted full term babies to supply a lucrative body parts market? Surrogates will be advertising in every available media! That is exactly the market that George W. Bush has made it appear Jesus Christ is willing to participate in! It's blasphemy! There is another name for what happens when Christians like George W. Bush confuse people about what Jesus Christ is really like. It is called idolatry. If we produce a distorted image of Jesus Christ, we are actually producing an image of a different God. That is idolatry, pure and simple. That is what George W. Bush did on television the other night. He produced a false image of Jesus Christ. What George W. Bush did was idolatry and was disgraceful for the USA. What's really scary is there is even a real possibility that George W is saved in the long run. Perhaps George W. Bush does believe that Jesus Christ died for his sins and was raised from the grave. But, even granting that George W. Bush might be saved, there is no doubt that the stem cell research decision has made him a living embodiment of the fact that a Christian might be saved for eternity but live on earth in the here and now as an evil collaborator with baby butchers whose conscience has been totally defiled by the wiles of Satan.
Maybe all 200 of Keyes supporters are on FR?

He was on FOXNEWS last Thursday, and accused John Gibson of complicity in murder because Gibson didn't feature pictures of aborted babies on his show.
Horsely may have a right to free speech, but I'll bet he's already been visited by the Secret Service, and they're going to watch him like a hawk.
Horsely does as much damage to the pro-life movement with stuff like this and the "abortion webcam" as Kate Michaelman does.
This is once again the law of unintended consequences. Not only will Horsely be monitored, but anyone who associates with him will come under survelliance. It's not just the website, but his open affiliation with the Army of God (see the HBO special, "Soldier in the Army of God;" one pro-life friend who watched it said he turned it off when one person described his do-it-yourself circumcision).
This may not be a direct threat to President Bush, but it's definitely brought attention--not of the kind Horsely wants--to himself and his associates.
And given that he told John Gibson and Judge Napolitano that they were collaborators (to murder, similar to statements made by another freeper on another thread, that AG John Ashcroft is an accomplice to murder, or words to that effect), it's not going to get him back on Fox anytime soon--except to have him on to bash him.
IMHO, putting Horsely on as a representative of the pro-life movement hurts much more than it helps.
