35 mill is less than the cost of the inauguration. sorry...but that doesn't really seem to cut it. yes, "eventual 1 billion" might be more like it. But i don't see how things are going to get done on imaginary money. if bush was hustling for the money, going to congress and making shit happen, i wouldn't bitch a bit. 35 now, the rest is on the way...that's reasonable. but right now, its a deafening silence, and i doubt that a significant amount of aid is going to get there in time to avert secondary casualties, deaths from disease and malnutrition.

mojo...what's so revolutionary about paying as percent of what we have? Luke 21:1-4 might have something to say. we talk very big, but we are giving a sum that barely even will be missed.
