The director of the anti-Bush documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" announced Saturday that a total of 1,200 professional and nonprofessional cameramen, filmmakers and videographers will bring their cameras to polling places in the two presidential battleground states, especially in minority communities.

"I'm putting those who intend to suppress the vote on notice: Voter intimidation and suppression will not be tolerated," Moore said in a statement.

Moore, who was in Columbus for a rally Saturday night, planned visits to Ohio and Florida on Tuesday, his publicist Terri Hardesty said.

Polls in both states indicate the race between President Bush and Sen. John Kerry is too close to call.

There have been voting problems already in Florida, where 537 votes tipped the state and the presidency to Bush in 2000. In Ohio, Democrats are fighting Republican attempts to challenge voter registrations.

Oh, that's only when Republicans hold them?

My thought exactly, someone where each of his cameras are, making sure that they are filming ALL that's going on, including his filming. That way when he edits the footage there will be REAL footage availabe!

If Republicans did this, it would be called "voter intimidation". . . .

Undoubtedly Moore will hack this footage together to make it look like there was massive GOP-initiated voter intimidation during the 2004 election.

And he'll turn it into a movie.

And he'll make plenty of money from all the wild-eyed liberal haters plunking down their cash at the theater to watch his cellulose screed.

I would encourage all conservatives to do the same to film the documentary "Night of the Electoral Living Dead", or "Gee, That Voter Looks Familiar".
