WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush plans to send Congress a request of up
to $75 billion early next year to finance wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
and operations against terrorism, congressional aides said Tuesday.

A proposal of that magnitude would indicate the wars' costs,
particularly to battle the intensified Iraqi insurgency, are far
exceeding what the Bush administration said it was expecting early this
year.
