CHICAGO (MarketWatch) -- Accusing Congress of trying to "micromanage" his administration's war in Iraq, President George W. Bush used his weekly radio address to threaten a veto of an emergency spending bill unless it is passed "without strings and without delay."

The purpose of the legislation, he said, "should be to give our troops on the front lines the resources, funds, and equipment they need to fight our enemies," but "some in Congress are using this bill as an opportunity to micromanage our military commanders, force a precipitous withdrawal from Iraq, and spend billions on domestic projects that have nothing to do with the war on terror."

Long used to getting his way with a compliant Republican Congress, Bush's signature issue has run into trouble in the new Democratically-controlled chambers, elected last fall largely due to widening public opposition to the war, which has killed more than 3,000 Americans and tens of thousands of Iraqis.

Still, Bush said that the "troops urgently need Congress to approve emergency war funds" and that he has "has begun pursuing a new strategy in Iraq."
