Look, the right does this kind of thing all the time. Certain folks call for one thing, others take a more "reasonable" position while also showing sympathy for "those who would go farther." It's good cop/bad cop. I think having people on the streets beating the drum for Bush'sresignation strengthens the hand of those in Congress who want impeachment.

"Clearly," they can say, "the nation's confidence in our chief executive has been shaken. It is up to Congress to act in a way that will heal America and restore faith in our republic."

Trust me... if we put 30,000 people in the Washington Mall calling for Bush to resign -- with satellite demonstrations in 10 other cities, letters to the editor, op-eds, etc., some folks who are on the fence about impeachment (I'm talkin' to YOU Barrack Obama!) would hop down onto our side.
