HUH???

I'm a little confused. Today, Tony Snow said that unless Congress appropriates more money for Iraq, the troops won't have money by maybe mid-April:

Finally, this: The clock is ticking. Money is going to run out for our forces in Iraq sometime next month. The money is running out, and meanwhile, you have people on Capitol Hill trying to buy or cajole votes for a bill that's not going to pass. The Speaker is busy working some of her members and they're also trying to twist some arms.
Our suggestion is, please get this done as rapidly as possible, because day after day, the money is running out like sands through an hour glass. And if you want to support our troops, get them the money they need when they need it.
Now, we hope Congress will go ahead and vote on this stuff, because if you take a look at the calendar now, the next few weeks, you will notice that I think a week from Monday, houses of Congress start breaking for their Easter or spring break, depending on how you want to define
it, and you do not have all of Congress back until the 16th of April, I believe. I think that's right, isn't it -- 16th of April? In any event, there's a very real chance that money for the troops will run out while members of Congress are on vacation. Is that the message you want to send to men and women who are putting their lives on the line?

I recall that Stephen Hadley, the National Security Advisor, said there was enough money to do the full escalation (1/14/07)¹:

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS)

(Off-camera) Let me turn to the issue of congressional war powers. As you know, our next guest is Congressman John Murtha. He's talked about restricting funding for various activities, extending the tour of military personnel beyond their standard tours, not allowing more
money to go for increased troops in Iraq unless readiness levels are met here at at home. Do you believe Congress has the authority to restrict funding in that way?

STEPHEN HADLEY (NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR)

We have authority in the - we have money in the '07 budget which has been appropriated by the Congress to move these troops to Iraq and the President will be doing that.
