Off the Table: A Farce in One Act

By David Swanson

Stage set: a dining room at left, an office at right

A woman enters the office where the phone is ringing. She answers it.

NP: Hello? Why do you ask? Yes, I'm sure. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Impeachment is off the table. Now let me tell you about some new legislative proposals that I think you're really going to like. I'll give you what we're going to pass in the first hundred seconds and in the first hundred months. Which one do you want first? Let's start with…

The woman's voice lowers but continues as lights go up in the dining room, where we see a cat jump off the table and wander into the office where the woman is hanging up the phone.

NP: Where were you sweetie? Was I ignoring you? Come here kitty kitty. I didn't mean to ignore you.

The phone rings. The cat leaves.

NP: Hello? Yes, this is Nancy Pelosi. Yes, I know, but an investigation investigates. It doesn't impeach. I've said it before and I'll say it again – Will you excuse me a second?..........

2. As far as I recall ...

... Pelosi only said it was off the table unless they found evidence of impeachable offenses.

Investigations come first. Yes, investigations, adding color and vibrancy to the careers and the lives of dozens of Republican mugwumps.

And what is it that a good investigation brings along? Evidence!

We'll have plenty of opportunity to reconsider the case for impeachment.
