US Not Free From RP-Style Scandals

Even a highly developed and said to be politically mature country like the United States has been spared from similar scandals that have hit the Philippines in the past. How about the Monica Lewensky scandal that rocked US President Bill Clinton's morality? Similarly, the several women linked to former President Erap Estrada as well as the linking of socialite Baby Arenas to former President Fidel Ramos have rocked their presidency.

The dismissal of eight American attorneys which led to the resignation of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales also has a similar ring to the resignation of various heads of office in the Philippines after they were rocked with scandal.
