Sneak peek at the weekend

This is a great all-you-can-eat weekend. For you letters-to-the-editor lovers, there's a page and a half filled with letters from Valley readers on Saturday. The usual Valley Voices page will return next week.

On the editorial page, we talk about drinking and driving and the drastic drop in the rate of domestic violence.

For all you editorial cartoon lovers, Sunday and Monday are like eating dessert first. There's a full page of cartoons by Fresno's own SW Parra on Sunday. And on Monday, it's the Sacramento Bee's Rex Babin.

In Sunday Vision:
Editorial Page Editor Jim Boren and E.J. Dionne join forces to cover the state and national political scene. Jim predicts this little bipartisan honeymoon the politicians are selling won't last long.

Our Sunday lead editorial takes a look back at 2006 and what made us glad and mad.

Victor Davis Hanson explains why the Iranian president is far weaker in his own country than he'd like Americans to know.

Maureen Dowd checks in with Donald Trump, getting his two cents on a lot of issues.

Thomas L. Friedman says Time's cover story should be the color green -- everyone wants in on the action.

The Valley's Top 10 list contain's the Valley's New Year's resolutions.

And on Monday, we take a look at 2007.

Enjoy!

A photo of Saddam being hanged would be rather tasteless. It wouldn't bother me, but it would upset quite a few others, I'm sure. I found footage of Saddam's hanging on You Tube shortly after it occurred, so it was there for those who wanted to see it.

The idea of registering lobbyists in Fresno County is a brilliant suggestion by Henry Perea. This is something that is long overdue and should be something that would be great to see at state level as well. For 10 years I was married into a very prominent family that makes it a standard practice of paying for political votes, favors and influence. This kind of abuse needs to stop at all levels of government. By making this information public the people will know who the multimillion dollar contributors that have corrupted our communities are.
