Looks like the Washington monument got some pretty good cracks in it's

I would not doubt the cracks were already there and the quake just shook
them loose.

But not sure I would want to be too close to it when she goes.

Some better picks and details.

If it is all Bush's fault, then how come Obama is doing much more of the

Those are some pretty good shots , of course there has been cracks in
it for some time, but nothing of structure to cause panic, but I think
this will get someones attention. With some federal funding and a
bunch of corporate and private donations, I imagine it will be
repaired better than new. It worked for the Statue of Liberty.
