Unable to successfully parent armature

Hello,
I have spent a long time creating an armature for a model I found online. Once I finished aligning the bones to the model, I tried to parent it with CTRL+P and using automatic weights like in this tutorial. After I parented it and tried moving the bones around in pose mode the mesh doesn’t move with them. I have had success with other models from the internet so I don’t know what I did wrong. The un-parented armature and model can be found here. I believe I did it the same way I did other meshes but there may be some unknown differences.

Gotta clean up non-manifold geometry, remove doubles, and make the whole thing a believable scale then apply the scales.

Thank you!
