Last Sunday and Monday a collective of activists, journalists, retired government officials and theater makers gathered at The Culture Project to begin mock impeachment proceedings against President Bush. The “trial by theater†arose in part out of frustration with Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi’s pledge to leave impeachment “off the table†when her party seized the House majority. The month long series, called A Question of Impeachment, is intended to spark debate and, participants hope, inspire more robust calls for impeachment from the grassroots.
