<p><big><big><big><br /> </big></big></big>&#8211;The <em><a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/11/27/EDQP1ARCRG.DTL">San Francisco Chronicle</a></em><a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/11/27/EDQP1ARCRG.DTL"> editorial board</a> on the Salahi gate-crashing incident<span id="more-51070"></span></p>
<p>The media has yet to come to a consensus over the meaning of &#8220;Crashgate.&#8221; Some outlets see the news that socialites <strong>Michaele</strong> and <strong>Tareq Salahi</strong> were able to get past state dinner security and even snap photos with <strong>President Obama</strong> as an alarming sign of poor security, some find fault with the Obama administration itself, and some think that the whole affair is funny. Not to be overlooked: it is possible that the Salahis had <a href="http://www.mediaite.com/online/state-dinner-party-crashers-indian-ambassador/">help from the inside</a>.</p>
<p>The members of the <em>San Francisco Chronicle</em>&#8216;s editorial board, for their part, <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/11/27/EDQP1ARCRG.DTL">does not think that the incident is a laughing matter</a>. If they&#8217;re not explicitly calling for the heads of Secret Service or White House staff, they at least see their firings as inevitable.</p>
<p>But is that fair? A poll: do you think anyone should be fired over the incident? Who, if anyone, do you think is at fault?</p>
