Precedents have been set, I think. Mentioned in that article;
Quote:
Our esteemed politicians can't seem to grasp this simple point, but the First Amendment protects our right to write something that annoys someone else.
It even shields our right to do it anonymously. U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas defended this principle magnificently in a 1995 case involving an Ohio woman who was punished for distributing anonymous political pamphlets.

I wouldn't be too fussed about this, even if anything came to light. Can't a court somewhere overturn it, or is the Prez signing something akin to absolute rule?
