This is cool. A Fed. v. States rights discussion possibly.

There s no good reason there cannot be federal legislation addressing medication and slaughter issues with the states responsible for other regulation and administration of all regs.

There are federal laws that apply to the insurance industry and yet states are responsible for regulation.

And not loving a sport or business has nothing to do with whether you can regulate it.
If you believe this will actually happen there is a bridge that i can sell you...


Though I believe that the RMTC has done many things the wrong way the basic mission that they have is a good one. To say that nothing has been done concerning the drug issue is wrong. It may have not been conducted in the most efficent or effective manner but to act as though nothing has been done or that the feds will have a better plan is simply wrong.

Horse slaughter is not a horseracing problem, it is a people problem. The vast majority of horses sent for slaughter arent racehorses. If there were effective laws made by Congress, horseslaughter would not be an issue. Of course then all the unwanted horses roaming around starving would become an issue as it has already.

Only you can believe that Whitfield 1 and 2 have good intentions especially in light of her humane Society connection after she magically appeared at the KHRA's doorstep.

The first replay show I ever saw. I was fascinated. Apparently, I used some long term memory space to store that name. Should have used that space for something useful...

I have been donating to RMTC for a few years and their intentions are good. But their results are pretty lousy. So, I have bought the bridge. You are too late.

The positive steps by RMTC and NTRA are akin to running the ball late in the 4th quarter while you are down 3 touchdowns.

The industry groups are far too incestuous. Nothing gets done. The penalties for breaking rules are next to nothing.

Yet, you and other trainers and owners say that steroids do not enhance performance. Is that bridge still for sale?

Good summation from NY Times, details that have been present to the Committee regarding horse deaths state-by-state, and trainer med positives:

From what I understand, they are being very selective about who will testify. Others who have asked to testify ( and in my opinion, would be very good witness's) have been declined. This appears to be very one-sided. Again, just my opinion.

The RMTC and its goals have not progressed fast enough for many simply because of the political nature of their mission. They concentrated on the penalty phase first before the research was properly done which is backwards. To think that this Congressional inquiry will not go down that same path is amusing.

Steroids dont enhance performance but you can believe whatever you want.

What you and most others are not getting that this whole thing is NOT about helping horseracing. It is about helping Ed Whitfield and helping further his wife's organizations agenda. Horseracing is not the primary goal here, it is the vehicle to get what this guy wants.
