I have to say, it brings us immense pleasure (in the justice sort of way) that the bipartisan legislative panel investigating Sarah Palin and her involvement with ‘Trooper Gate’ have found that she in fact did unlawfully abuse her authority by firing the state’s public safety commissioner. The Associated Press has just released this breaking news. So please read the entire findings. Here’s a crucial snippet:
“Governor Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where i... Read Full Story
We unofficially told ourselves here at EMP that we would no longer write about Sarah Palin for the simple fact that she’s not worth killing off innocent brain cells in order to figure out why people seem to like a woman who less than 4 years ago thought about making a go of her life as a local, small town television anchor. But after reviewing the trajectory of polls over the last few weeks, we simply have to go against our No Palin Policy and resurrect discussion of a woman who could ... Read Full Story
Yesterday, Barack Obama delivered a speech entitled, “A New Vision for a 21st Century Education” to an audience in Ohio. In it he highlighted our need to prepare America’s children to be able to compete in the growing global economy by breaking with tradition and forging new paths in educational reform, accountability, and a more selective strategy for the recruitment of top educators. Here’s a snippet:
“We need a new vision for a 21st century education – one whe... Read Full Story
On Monday, Gustav said hola without a lot of attitude, thankfully, and spared New Orleans the disaster that everyone was forecasting. Adios, tonta!
But that attitude soon reared its head on Tuesday when John McCain picked Karl Rove in drag Sarah Palin as communications intern … i mean running mate.
And, well, on Wednesday in her introduction to the US, she sure tried her hardest to tell Barack Obama where to stick it (with a smile on). Too bad her speech had no real content whatsoever ... Read Full Story
Last night at the Republican National Convention, Sarah Palin took the stage and introduced herself to the country. She began by throwing her support around John McCain like she’d known him for 20 years, even though they’d only briefly met once before last week. Nevertheless, she praised his military and political service all the while dropping in anecdotes from her own family. She spoke of the war in Iraq, then mentioned her 18 year old son who will be deployed their next week. S... Read Full Story
These are tricky times, my friends, tricky. On one hand, liberal media should do the responsible thing and place Sarah Palin under a microscope carefully examining her service to the United States, her life, and her international and domestic political experience, especially since she is such an unknown. On the other hand though, the liberal media is creating excellent fodder for the McCain camp by choosing to fixate more on Palin’s 17 year old pregnant, unwed daughter, and her professi...

John McCain has finally chosen his running mate. And in a selection which has stunned both republican and democratic parties alike, Sarah Palin (pronounced with a long ‘A’) is his choice. Since we haven’t really heard of her, EAT MY PRESS decided to investigate. What follows are the pros and cons of said selection:
Sarah Palin as possible Vice President of the United States, pros (As republicans see it):

SInce it was so historic in a number of ways and so completely riveting, I’ll let Barack’s speech speak for itself. He finally delivered on all fronts. Extraordinarily well done.
EAT MY PRESS endorses Barack Obama for President of the United States.
Onwards! Read Full Story
I really like Joe Biden. He’s exactly the kind of well-seasoned politician, (having started his political career when he was only 29 years old), and foreign policy expert that Barack Obama needs to deepen himself as he runs for president of the United States. He’s an excellent speaker, and also the kind of guy you could have a few beers with and talk about the crisis in Georgia or the tourist boom in a post-genocide Rwanda as well as rip some republican a new one in only the way t...
