Hilarious interview on the CBS Morning Show. Pelosi is asked why all the pet projects are being included in the Stimulus Bill, including a multi-million dollar project for STDs.

When asked how funding for STDs will infuse the economy, Pelosi went on a stuttering and rambling rant about prevention.

The reporter then quoted a politician from a few years back that was criticizing the fact that one party had effectively been shut out of the legislative process. The politician who made the quote was Pelosi. In 2005 she was upset that the dems voices were not heard. When asked about zero Republicans voting for the current Stimulus Bill, Pelosi responded by saying "But that's different".

Change indeed.
