Democratic Sen. Ken Salazar last year inserted into a bill language that bars the federal government from issuing final rules for commercial oil-shale development. The language is meant to prevent the issuing of leases, which can be done once those regulations are complete.

The trick here is to leave that jackass Salazar (and thus CO, also -- temporarily) completely out of the loop, start in on WY and UT.

When the spendthrift Ritter sees how much revenue WY and UT are taking in from shale-related production, Ritter will tell Salazar to STFU and get on board.
