Leading members of the Congressional Steel Caucus have revealed that Chinese-made pipe and tube are being used to construct the congressionally mandated fence along the border with Mexico. They are demanding that something be done to ensure that American made products are used instead.
"It is outrageous, offensive, and unacceptable," says Rep. Jason Altmire (D-western PA). "If they are going to build this with steel it should be U.S. steel. No exceptions," said Rep. Phil English (R-western PA), who added that there are firms in his district that would love to supply materials for building the fence. English calls the barrier a "Great Wall of China."
The assembled members displayed a photograph of the fence -- only a small portion of which has been completed to date -- with piping that is clearly marked, "China." They say it was given to them by union activists, and that after seeing it, the members confirmed with the Department of Homeland Security that the government was indeed using Chinese-made pipe and tube. Not only that, DHS waived the "buy American" requirement written into the law that authorized construction.
It's not a matter of price, they say, but of national and economic security -- and also of quality. "They don't make safe toys," says Rep. Pete Visclosky (D-IN). "We ought to have a quality fence." Visclosky has asked DHS Secretary Chertoff to come to Congress and testify on the issue.
Presidential hopeful and critic of China Rep. Duncan Hunter was also on hand. He pointed out that of the 854 miles of barriers authorized by Congress a year ago, only five miles of double fencing and 70 miles of single fencing have so far been constructed.

Sir Rupert is married to Myspace whore Deng Wen Di
"Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. sealed a $5 billion agreement to purchase the publisher of The Wall Street Journal after three months of drama in the controlling family and public debate about journalistic values. The 76-year-old Mr. Murdoch, whose properties range from the Fox television network to the Times of London, negotiated hard to win the paper he long coveted. He has promised to invest more in Dow Jones journalism. The Bancrofts worried about protecting the reputation of the Journal, the nation's second-largest newspaper. They feared Mr. Murdoch would meddle in the paper's editorial affairs and import the brand of sensationalist journalism found in some of his properties such as the New York Post. Opponents of the deal called it a dark day for journalism. Leslie Hill, a family member who opposed the deal, resigned as a Dow Jones director late Tuesday afternoon. News Corp.'s board signed off on the deal at a brief late-afternoon meeting. After the approval, top executives and advisers broke out glasses for a toast. They were served an Australian Shiraz."

Rupert Murdoch and Communist wife Wendi Deng dine at White House
"How convenient that Big Brother's bridge 'collapsed' in Minnesota today, perhaps killing dozens of people. Now the talking heads won't have to report that Communist China bought the Wall Street Journal today, to censor the Communist Chinese takeover of USA. Sir Rupert Murdoch, "Jewish" Australian Knight of the British Empire, is married to Wendi Deng, a card-carrying Communist Party citizen of Communist China. They live in Bejing, the capital of Communist China. The Murdochs own Fox News, Direct TV, TV Guide Channel, MySpace, The Sun pornographic 'newspaper', and now WSJ and DOW Jones. Unless the criminal attorney general stops this monopolistic merger by Bush Jr's White House guests. Since the Communist Manifesto bans ownership of private property, the Communist Party of China now owns Fox News. The Commie Manifesto was written by Jew Karl Marx in London England."
