#2 Still not fixed at 0945 CT.

I can find the Lincoln Memorial on the map easily enough. Google Maps puts pins on the FDR Memorial and some other site to the east of both.

I'd like to think it's just a glitch, but by now we all know Google well enough to know that it isn't.

#3 Its a googlebomb. As usual the leftists use lies in the furtherance of their agenda.

#5 They're trying to contaminate virtuous Republicans by having them visit FDR's memorial, I just know it!

#6 Do they really think that nobody will notice when they get there that it's not the Lincoln Memorial? Everyone has seen pictures of the Lincoln Memorial - with the statue of Lincoln sitting in a chair and all.

Perhaps they are going to build a huge paper mache 'statue' of FDR and hope nobody will notice.

#7 If you need Google Maps to find the Lincoln Memorial, the mapping conflict is the least of your worries!

#10 DFMD, I pretty much use Bing for all my searches now. I'll only resort to Google if I can't find what I'm looking for with Bing (which hasn't happened yet).

Whatever I can do to pay back Google for the "respect" they show this country....
