Did the Squirrel Speech deliver? Well, it delivered some hilarious mockery: The big take-away to Twitter users was “tolly me banana.” Plus, there was the added comedy gold of a Code Pink heckler.
But did it deliver on its goal of distracting from the multiple Obama administration scandals? Heck no, says Hot Air’s Allahpundit.
How can the speech be designed to “distract” from scandal when there’s nothing new in it? What’s the “distraction”?

If this squirrel speech doesn't work on scandals, next week Obama will opine on energy policy or something else he doesn’t understand. #tcot
