To "pull a Cyrano" is to speak through someone else, as Cyrano spoke to Roxanne through a proxy. For example, when Karl Rove was policy chief for the Bush Administration, he was accused of pulling a Cyrano by sending Cabinet members and allies in Congress to Sunday morning Talk Shows and instructing them what to say.
