Seems like Biden likes to take tough "what if" stances when it comes to fights that base wants.

Biden is now "for" the Alito Filibuster now that it is said and done, and claims to be "for" Impeachment investigations somewhere in the distant future -once he knows many in the public will have moved on to something else.

I'm not buying it- BUT- I will concede to your point- at least he is getting "The I Word" into some limited public discourse-at least one obscure message board. I do have to give him some credit for that.

However, if raising awareness is his goal, he could get people talking ON TV about it if he would support it in the now...

Even better, he could merely call for Bush's resignation (that takes no votes, and allows no excuses) and ask why other DEMS refuse to do so.

This would get people talking about impeachment ON TV, not just on DU.
