Attorney Butch Bowers said Monday that none of what he termed as "questions" rise to the level of impeachment.
The commission revealed its list of 37 charges Monday, accusing the governor of improperly using pricey airline seats, taking state planes for personal and political trips and reimbursing himself from campaign funds.
