“Death to the fascist insect that preys upon the life of the people,” Patty Hearst, AKA “Tania” of the Symbionese Liberation Army, famously declared. Ann Coulter, on a vision quest to find the messiah who will resurrect the G.O.P., doesn’t muster quite as much coherence: “Indeed, the only good thing about McCain is that he gave us a genuine conservative, Sarah Palin. He’s like one of those insects that lives just long enough to reproduce so that the species can survive. That’s why a lot of us are referring to Sarah as “The One” these days. Like Sarah Connor in ‘The Terminator,’ Sarah Palin is destined to give birth to a new movement. That’s why the Democrats are trying to kill her. And Arnold Schwarzenegger is involved somehow, too. Good Lord, I’m tired.”
