The Pamphleteer

During colonial times in America, if you wanted to convince or inform people about some issue that you considered important, you went to the local printer and got some pamphlets printed. You then handed them out, read them to anybody that was interested, nailed them to the town bulletin board, or the nearest tree. The first amendment was specifically written to protect this type of activity and the writers or "pamphleteers".

Intermission

If the whole Rove-Miller-Plame-Wilson-Cooper fandango has your head reeling, this guy helps:

So: There was this CIA agent, or she wasn't really an agent, or yes
she was; and Karl Rove gave out her name during an interview so her
career would be ruined and she couldn't do undercover missions to
steal secret microchips anymore, or no he didn't, or yes he did; and
he did so, or not, because her husband said some stuff that wasn't, or
was, true about Iraq or Africa or someplace; and then the husband
disappeared for a while and his website about restoring honesty
magically became a Kerry website*, but now he's back on TV and his
hair really looks great; and there are these reporters who are in
trouble... That's the thing, it's reporters covering other reporters,
which is never not boring. And the whole Rove deal. "Grrr, Rove, must
kill Rove!!!" I guess he's a jerk and everything, but can't they dig
up something juicier on him? [There's probably a funny example I could
put here. Why start now.]
