Disclosure forms reveal that Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a member of Congress from Florida, previously held funds with investments in Swiss banks, foreign drug companies, and the state bank of India. This revelation comes mere days after the Democratic chair attacked presumptive Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney for holding money in Swiss bank accounts in the past.

"Americans need to ask themselves, why does an American businessman need a Swiss bank account and secretive investments like that?" the DNC chair, a chief surrogate for President Obama's reelection team, said on Fox News Sunday two days ago. "Just something, a thought, that I'd like to leave folks with."

Love that response. I watch every segment when someone on Fox has Allen West on. We need more like him who will say it like it is.

I do like the rapid response to all of these attacks.

OK, somebody tel me why doing this is wrong...

[StAnDeliver]

Kerry-who-fought-in-Vietnam has a similarly expansive international investment portfolio.

Someone should ask DWS which is worse, a person legally shielding their income from taxes by investing it outside of the US ... or a person engaging in fraudulent real estate transaction(s) with a now-convicted felon?!

Why do most pictures of Ms. Debbie show her only from the neck up?

[Kickass Conservative]

Oh Barack, it really is that big!

[ScottinVA]

You have proven repeatedly that you are not a Lady, therefore, shall not be afforded due respect from me!

I would crawl over shards of glass to vote for Allen West for President. I hope the republic can survive long enough to see him at the head of the GOP ticket.

I think that's what they call a pear-shaped body.

Kinda like FLOTUS ... "butt" on a smaller scale.

[Sarah Barracuda]

That’s an insult to fluffy poodles. Debbie looks like a rodent

[Henry Hnyellar]

And these idiots complain of Romney’s supposed outsourcing?
