Tea Party loves China, Like Recall candidate Kim Simac.

Tea party hypocrites are a dime a dozen. Like Ron Johnson's praise of China's business climate, and his love of "creative destruction," it shouldn't be to surprising to find another tea partier using the low wage slave labor in China to have her books published.

TPM: Here's a tip for the tea party Republican attempting to win a general election: don't let Democrats find out you employed Chinese labor to publish your books about American heroism.

Such is the fate of Kim Simac, a tea party leader founder and Republican party choice … against incumbent Democratic Sen. Jim Holperin. Simac was last seen scrubbing the web of her past writings comparing the public schools to Nazi Germany. Now she's stuck having to explain away why her uber-patriotic children's books are published in China.

Kathleen Marsh, a author and publisher who had her last book printed right in Simac's hometown of Eagle River, WI. … Marsh makes a compelling case that Simac could've found an American printer if she wanted, suggesting that Simac went with Chinese printing -- as so many children's book authors these days do, she told TPM -- to save money.
