5. Kennedy said they can't wait and must pre-empt Bush because he will
have the troops in there before Congress has a chance to act and that must not happen. If Congress waits to cut off funds and Bush sends the troops then the Dems will be accused of "not funding the troops."

He's doing it now to get the Bill on the floor right after Bush's speech if Bush doesn't BACK OFF his Escalation.

That's why he did it early.
