Well the report is out and all it really says is that Sarah Palin abused
her power as Alaska's governor in the firing of her public safety
commissioner. Since she has the authority to fire commissioners, she
didn't break any law, she just fired him for the wrong reason.

Palin refused to meet with the bipartisan Legislative Council to give
her side of the story despite repeated efforts to interview her, even
though she earlier had pledged to cooperate.

What would have been the right reason to fire him?
