Most of the stuff I'm referring to is from Star Wars books, sorry Cpt. Crunch. The movies don't really go very far into the workings of the Empire, but the books (especially the X-Wing and New Jedi Order series) show more about what happens in the upper levels of the empire.
I'm particularly fond of Palpatine killing the creator of the Death Star, then bringing him back to life just to kill him in a more disgusting way! (See: Darksaber) I think he did that like 5 times to him. What a benevolent leader.
