Is This Wisconsin Republican (Kim Sumac-Tea Party) Running From Her 'Nazi' Name-Calling Past?

oh yeah, she is running as fast as she can--from this one-- but she is splattered with tea.
She followed Palin to Madison from the great northwoods and has a website saying she is the founder of great north woods Tea Party. and her links lead to glen becks websites.

Is This Wisconsin Republican Running From Her 'Nazi' Name-Calling Past?


July 26, 2011, 9:16AM


What do you do when you're a tea party organizer with a history of inflammatory comments comparing America's public schools to Nazi Germany? If you're Wisconsin state Senate candidate Kim Simac, the answer may be liberally apply the delete key to your online past.

Simac is the Republican candidate in the Wisconsin recall election in state Senate district 12, which means she's hoping to unseat incumbent state Sen. Jim Holperin (D). Thanks to the strange political dance that is the Wisconsin recall process, Simac will face Holperin in a general election contest later next month.

Simac has the support of the state party, according to the Wausau Daily Herald. She's also got a well documented history of saying extreme things about public schools. Those two roles -- mainstream GOP candidate and fiery tea party leader -- may be in conflict as Simac attempts to unseat an incumbent Democrat. And so it appears that one of Simac's more controversial statements has disappeared from her tea party blog just as the general election fight begins in earnest.

The post in question went up in Oct, 2010 on the Patriot Action Network, a tea party social network that connects activists across the country. Simac is a longstanding member of the network, though her page is set to private meaning only people she's friends with can now look at her posts. ..................

1. This statement pretty much sums up her creds, and her supporters...

"I am done raising my kids but if I was a young parent today I would take my kids out of the public school system today. At what point will we stop talking about the comparisons to what is occurring today and what actually happened by the regime of the Nazi's in the past?... Take the commercial that Glenn Beck showed from British Progressives that explains to little children that if they do not listen to their teachers recommendations on subjects such as carbon emissions, they could have their heads blown off.

2. Holperin to Simac: "Let's Debate" | Jim Holperin for State Senate....

Past time to put her up in front of the voters!! Seems she has agreed to one at this point. Also it is the evening as polls close for the general election related to Republican recall races.

Claudia Baker Absolutely! She needs to have something more than "I'll be there for you." (Except when it's horse camp time.)
