Bush is not going to get a clean bill.

Bush would accept the pork maybe, but no deadline. He will shut down other branches to support the troops in Iraq before that will happen.

Listen for the Dems to squeal then.

He will also accept benchmarks without specific dates. I don't think Bush has the authority to shut down the government and move the money to DOD. He would be violating the law. Congress has the power of the purse.
