Pelosi: Cuts to Stimulus Bill "Violent'"

Speaker Nancy Pelosi sounds like she is getting rattled by the GOP's opposition to the president's $900 billlion and counting stimulus bill.

She spoke to reporters from the Democratic retreat in Williamsburg, Virginia, emphasizing the importance of delivering a bill to the president's desk quickly. Pelosi said precious time was being wasted by those wishing to make significant cuts to the legislation.

Her reasoning, however, was strange. According to the Politico, said if the new Senate cuts were passed it "will do violence to the future."
