| The White House will ask Congress for an additional $70 billion to fund the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan for the remainder of the fiscal year -- nearly double some government estimates of what would be needed just a few months ago -- and will also seek $50 billion more as a down payment for those wars in 2007, administration officials said yesterday.
