The &#8220;trial by theater&#8221; arose in part out of frustration with Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi&#8217;s pledge to leave impeachment &#8220;off the table&#8221; 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.<\/p>\n<p>Monday night&#8217;s event, which was videotaped and posted online here, featured New Yorker writer Hendrick Hertzberg, former Harper&#8217;s editor Lewis Lapham, theater artist Rinde Ekert and others. Go check out the segment with Ray McGovern, a retired CA analyst and Soviet expert, who &#8220;testifies&#8221;\u009d against the administration. McGovern chaired the National Intelligence Estimate for many years and produced the President&#8217;s Daily Brief under Nixon, Ford and Reagan. The morning PDB is a one-page breakdown of the most urgent recent intelligence gathered by the C.I.A.; one such PDB was famously shrugged off by Bush in August 2001 &#8220;\u201c it was titled &#8220;Bin Laden determined to attack inside the U.S.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A Question of Impeachment continues Monday night at 7pm; on Sunday December 9th Vanessa, Lynn, and Corin Redgrave will participate in a reading of Poems from Guantanamo: The Detainees Speak, a collection of poems written by detainees at Guantanamo Bay.
