I agree that conditions should be improved, but recongize that there's an agenda behind the piece and it has nothing to do with improved backstretch conditions.

Oh so there isn't a money-saving agenda from the other side?

So since there is an agenda should they just ignore it?

Apparently, you missed the part where I agreed that backstretch conditions should be improved.

In this case, the message, however, is obscured by the messenger.

1. expose agenda

Does not mean we should bury our head in the sand and ignore possible attempts at manipulation but also dont think just saying someone has an agenda is reason alone to discount something.

Someone can have an agenda and be 100% truthful and accurate.

PopFly is an agenda thief...can't be trusted.

"Newspapers have agendas. They want bad news"

OMG!!

Well lets just disregard that article because those god-damned liberal newspapers have an agenda. We've got to keep the facade up that we're the greatest race track on earth and when you come here the fountain in the infield will make you at least two years younger.
