		A FEW months ago Speaker Joe de Venecia basked in glory when he hosted in Manila an international summit of Christian Democrats—though the consensus was that the ideological niceties were somehow lost on the Lakas rah-rah boys in the House of Representatives who turned the event into something resembling an administration party rave.
		That is the nature of the ideology.” (We refrained from interrupting Wille to gently point out that the differences in the local Liberal Party had little to do with ideology, and everything to do with the politics of personality).
		Except, of course, in the Philippines where the liberals are either to the left of Drilon or to the right of Atienza.

	ALDE - Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe in the European Parliament : Human Rights
		Whatever efforts the international community is currently undertaking, millions of people continue to live in regimes where there is no independent judiciary, democratic system or freedom of expression and where torture, racism, capital punishment, slavery, forced labour, crimes against humanity, genocide, ethnic cleansing, still tragically occur on a daily basis.
		We believe that the political and economic progress made by the European Union including the decision to enlarge the EU to include the countries of Eastern and Central Europe is a fundamental step in the right direction but it is not enough.
		Despite the economic advances, men and women as individuals are not yet able to fully exercise their personal freedoms in all spheres of life, and as the Alliance of European Liberals and Democrats for Europe we will continue the struggle to achieve this goal.
