Do you remember Obama's press conference on the explosion in the Gulf?

Do you recall the excuse he gave, about why his Interior Department issued exemptions to BP:
"[T]here is a thorough environmental review as to whether a certain portion of the Gulf should be leased or not. . . . .Under current law, the Interior Department has only 30 days to review an exploration plan submitted by an oil company. That leaves no time for the appropriate environmental review. The result is, they're continually waived. And this is just one example of a law that was tailored by the industry to serve their needs instead of the public's."
It's not true.
