Squirrel disrupts Ohio Democratic circle jerk

Squirrel disrupts press conference

It would’ve been a normal, everyday political press conference on the steps of the Ohio Statehouse on Monday, Oct. 20.

U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, Gov. Ted Strickland and Columbus Mayor Michael Coleman — all Democrats — stood shoulder to shoulder in dark business suits in front of a battery of news cameras.

But then a guy dressed in a giant orange squirrel costume showed up, waving a poster that said “Don’t Let Obama + Acorn Steal Ohio.”

/sigh

I wonder if the squirrel was at a Republican press conference and was asked to leave if it would be reported as the crushing of dissent and trampling of the 1st amendment?
