Why hasn't the deputy director that took part and ran the faux news conference been fired. All he would have had to do is said no, but instead he conducted the news conference. Its the same all around the little guy gets fired while the big guy keeps his job and benefits. Whats wrong with this picture.

Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff called the faux press conference "one of the dumbest and most inappropriate things I've seen since I've been in government­."

Not including Chertoff's entire service in Homeland Security.
