Grant us this small bit of humor...

While not directly a public lands issue, we were kind of amused by this: BORDER FENCE: MADE IN CHINA?

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'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."

Yes. Quality. Built by hard-working American citizens, by golly!

Ahem...
