WINGLESS, BLOODSUCKING AND PARASITIC: MEET THE FLEA PARTY!

The article Wingless, Bloodsucking and Parasitic: Meet the Flea Party!, is written by Ann Coulter who sits on the right side of the political party. Coulter’s intended audience would be for anyone who is not in favor of the protesters who “Occupy Wall Street.”  The reason I say that because is Coulter refers to protesters as “average democrats – they can’t even explain why they’re protesting.”  

The protesters are relatively young people who are graduating with college degrees and cannot find a job, and still live at home with their parents. The argument presented is true that democrats are embarrassed by the “Occupy Wall Street” protesters. These people can’t even explain why they are protesting. Ann Coulter explains in her blog that if you are an American then elect the people you believe is the right person for the job. If the protesters are mostly democrats, then these protesters are the ones who put a democrat in office. The article also rings truth that the Republican Party stood for equal rights. The article quotes, “the congressional Republicans kept introducing bills that implemented the civil rights amendments—only to be blocked by segregationist Democrats.” I agree with Coulter when she describes when Democrats got control of the White House they were free to violate previous constitutional rulings without interference from the elected Democratic presidents. It is clear that the protesters have no specific objections and are only doing this to create mayhem because these protestors might be out of a job. 

Ann Coulter summarizes the article with a clear message, these are not traditional civil rights activists trying to better the country, but complaining just to criticize because they don’t have anything else to blame their own faults on. The logic in the blog is easy to follow and well written. It is interesting how these proclaimed Democrats are embarrassing their own party and from the article it is evident. Again, the protesters do not even have an agenda so it shows they are doing it because they can. The only reason they can protest is because the Republican Party properly went about changing civil rights for the better of the United States of America.
