Roveian Oil Plot that Predates Rove

Instapundit links to this item about the HUGE amount of oil in the shale deposits in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming. Of course, we all know about the HUGE amount of oil in ANWR in Alaska. Then there is the LARGE amount of oil that we think is just offshore (scroll down). None of which have we been making much effort to get at.

This reminds me of something that I heard Rep. Richard Pombo (R-CA) say in a speech. He was talking to a foreign oil minister who declared that the US's energy strategy was transparently obvious. It was clear, the minister said, that we were hoarding all of our own oil and using up everybody else's first.

Could be.
