Some Freeper had a great idea the other night. We have read in the news that Michael Moore has gotten a crew of volunteer and hired cameramen to videotape various polling locations in order to document any "voter intimidation." Since the Dems are relying on illegal voters, and people voting multiple times we should make signs that read "Don't try to vote illegally. We are filming you!", etc. and stand next to Michael Moore's cameramen. This will drive the Moorites nuts and maybe even scare off a few illegal voters.

When posting, be clear when you are inserting your own title, in this case: "Democrats don't want to be photographed standing in line at more than one polling location" . Suggestion: include the real title of the linked content and add your comment in parenthesis.

Oh come on. He wasn't arrested for taking pictures of a voting line, he was arrested for failing to comply with the lawful order of a peace officer. Two different things.

"... we should make signs that read "Don't try to vote illegally. We are filming you!", etc. and stand next to Michael Moore's cameramen. Absolutely brilliant!
Are you perhaps related to the late Lee Atwater?

Assistant Palm Beach County Attorney Leon St. John said Cinque was enforcing new rules, enacted Friday by elections chief Theresa LePore, that prohibit reporters from talking with or photographing voters waiting outside polling stations. How does an "elections chief" get to effectively enact legislation to prohibit reporters from talking with or photographing people outside of polling stations?
Sheriff's Deputy Al Cinque tried to stop Henry as he shot pictures of about 600 people standing in line to vote Sunday afternoon. Henry began running away, but Cinque tackled him, the Palm Beach Post reported.
Sounds like Henry did stop...
The deputy pinned Henry, 54, to the ground, yelling for him to stop moving, then punched him in the back. Cinque handcuffed Henry's left arm, pulled him to his feet and punched him again as Henry tried to hand him identification cards, according to the paper.
Hope there's videotape of this...sounds like false arrest and assault and battery.

They get to 'enact' them on the orders of the [dang, old age syndrome just hit] I forget the darned title, but the woman who is the elections chief in the Florida gov. She sent a memo to all elections boards to institute whatever policy necessary to keep voters from being harrassed etc.

I have some reservations about how ''lawful'' the order was. From the article: ...Cinque was enforcing new rules, enacted Friday by elections chief Theresa LePore, that prohibit reporters from talking with or photographing voters waiting outside polling stations.

Not an hour ago, I watched MSNBC's David Schuster speak to the MSNBC anchor, and in the background was a long line of people waiting to vote in Broward County. He even asked of them, "Raise your hand if you've been waiting for over an hour". If was funny too, because a group of young kids also in back of him, were Bush supporters. One guy had a big BUSH sign on the back of his tee shirt, so he had his back to the camera, directly behind Schuster. He had with him a gaggle of giggling girls...they were having such a good time, they knew they got on camera, and for the entire segment too.

"...that prohibit reporters from talking with or photographing voters waiting outside polling stations" Bet they still take their exit polls without any arrest.

Can't have any photographic evidence of voter fraud dangling out there, can we.
