Are these two the sign vandals?
The sign vandalism video sure has raised a lot of blood pressure. Republicans seem eager to hang someone, while some Democrats are suggesting that the video was staged.
In the last post, I asked: “I wonder how long it will take to identify these people. Are they Republicans or Democrats? Are they involved in a campaign? If so, for whom do they work?”
So let’s all take a deep breath, sit back, and look at what we know and what we don’t know.
First, a blog called Gateway Pundit claims to have identified the two individuals in the video.
What do you think?
(These photos are from facebook, via Gateway Pundit. If the pictures do not display properly in your browser, you can click on the blog link to see them.)
So are these two really the ones caught on tape? The picture of the guy certainly looks like the guy on the tape. The girl might also be a match, although the girl in the picture doesn’t seem to be quite as heavy as the girl in the video. Of course, it is possible that the picture was taken in the fall of her freshman year.
The Gateway Pundit also states that the two are students at Missouri State University. The MSU People Search confirmed their status as students. (Those into irony will take note of Chris Worth’s major.)
Now, for what we don’t know. Gateway Pundit says these two are Democrats. Is that true?
Of course, Democrats could be right; maybe Christin Green and Chris Worth are Republicans who staged fake vandalism. If so, Green and Worth should admit to doing as much.
If not, well, they still have some explaining to do, don’t they?
