Last I heard, it was the House that wanted firm deadlines, that the Senate that wanted softer "goals" and that in the converence committee, the House caved and adopted the Senate position.

BTW: I'm surprised the Dems haven't taken a firmer position over all, saying something like: "Here's your extra money. You can veto this bill if you like because you don't like our guidelines, but this is the only bill, you're getting. The American people spoke in the last election; they want the troops home, and this bill is designed to impliment their will. If you veto this bill, you're not getting another."
