Web articles are indicating that Obama has “pledged” and “additional” $400 million. Does that mean that he’s got it to give with no specific budget authorization from Congress?

This is a huge number - I just don’t understand how America can come up with “new” dollar gifts to other countries, especially this one.

We seem screwed.
