Report: Palin abused power, broke no laws in trooper case - CNN.com
Aww, Sawwah already abusing power and finding loopholes around laws. Quite the Republican Maverick she is.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is under investigation for the firing of her public safety commissioner.
Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan's refusal to fire Palin's ex-brother-in-law from the state police force was "likely a contributing factor" to Monegan's July dismissal, but Palin had the authority as governor to dismiss him, the report by former Anchorage prosecutor Stephen Branchflower states.
