Welcome

Welcome to the first Democrats Abroad Luxembourg Newsletter. We hope this newsletter will become a forum for Democrats and like-minded others living in Luxembourg: a place where one can express ideas, find links to a variety of opinion and news, and explore ways to help the cause of securing a government that acts honestly and responsibly both at home and abroad. This newsletter is a work in progress, and although we will frequently update and improve it, please remember that the quality of its content will depend to a great deal on you and your contributions.

We welcome your reasoned opinions, alerts to items of interest elsewhere, and suggestions on how to make this newsletter better. As you contribute, however, please observe a respect for the opinions of others that would do credit to the value that we as Democrats have always placed on openness and diversity of thought. Openness in government, respect for other opinions, and with them, a decent care for the circumstances of all Americans, constitute the very values that have been most in absence these last six years. Certainly we can all do something to bring them back.

Elections are now squarely upon us. Elections are the last remedy accorded every citizen against unworthy men in positions of power. And this year, with so many Americans now beyond reasonable patience with these men, they offer a most providential opportunity to be part of that remedy.
