And that rhetoric proved effective in Colorado;Salazar won his Senate seat.<\/p>\n<p>This week, the interior department will unveil new regulationsto allow the sale of oil shale leases on federal land. In the western states, those leases could eventually unlock up to 800 <emphasize>billion barrels<\/emphasize> <emphasize>of oil<\/emphasize>. Last month President Bush spelled out what that would mean for America,saying that &#8220;one major deposit in the Rocky Mountain West alone would equal current annual oil imports for more than 100 years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But guess who\u2019s standing inthe way? Senator Ken Salazar, Democrat, Colorado. Last year he slipped language into a billto bar the federal government from issuing final regulations for commercial oil-shale development.<\/p>\n<p>Even with $4-a-gallon gasoline, Salazar and his fellow Democrats are <emphasize>still<\/emphasize> preventing America from using <emphasize>our own resources<\/emphasize> to lower gas prices and create new jobs. In fact, Democrats &#8212; having killed off any chance of a gas-tax holiday&#8211; reportedly now want to <emphasize>raise<\/emphasize> the federal tax that you pay on each gallon of gas by a dime!<\/p>\n<p>The moral(in case you haven\u2019t figuredthis out)is that &#8220;new Democrats&#8221; don\u2019t exist &#8211;except when running for office. In office, they\u2019re the same old liberals thatthey\u2019ve always been,and they don\u2019t give a rat\u2019s rear end about youor what\u2019s right for the country&#8230; it\u2019s only about themselves.<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rush\u2019s Morning Update: Nothing NewJuly 23, 2008Watch It!
