Structure Collapse in Las Vegas

Part of a new resort under construction collapsed this morning in Las Vegas:
Three floors of the Fontainebleau construction project collapsed around 10:30 this morning near the Las Vegas Strip.

Firefighters from three departments rushed to the scene to help with rescues. Fortunately, all of the construction workers escaped without injury.

Eyewitnesses say they heard a noise and saw plumes of dust coming from the structure but they didn't know what had happened.
At least one person was heard to blame the collapse on President Bush because he's spent too much money on the war in Iraq and not enough on luxurious Las Vegas resorts. (not really, but that's pretty much the reaction I expect from the left to any news event these days)
