A Question of Loyalty

Aides to Governor Palin have been issued subpoenas regarding alleged abuse of power by the Governor. "As state employees, our clients have taken an oath to uphold the Alaska Constitution . . . . However, our clients are also loyal employees subject to the supervision of the governor . . . . On behalf of our clients, we respectfully ask that you withdraw the subpoenas directed to our clients and thereby relieve them from the circumstance of having to choose where their loyalties lie."

That's not clever editing, that's what was stated. The lawyers don't want to make their clients to choose between the CONSTITUTION (albeit the Alaskan Constitution) and the Governor. I wonder how this is going to play out. Just kidding, the Department of Justice won't be around long enough for that!

I like your style, Palin!
