  • Harry Reid breaks his face

    http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...crat/21182151/

    Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid is in a Las Vegas hospital following injuries sustained while exercising at home.

    A statement issued Friday by Reid's office said doctors expect a "full recovery."

    "A piece of equipment Senator Reid was using to exercise broke, causing him to fall and break a number of ribs and bones in his face," according to the statement. "Senator Reid will return to Washington this weekend and be in the office Tuesday as the Senate prepares to reconvene."
    His explanation is suspicious. My money's on his boyfriend.

    Seriously, Dirty Harry... you are a prime example of why Congress needs term limits. Step down before you kill yourself.

      I'm just trying to imagine the sequence of events that start with a piece of exercise equipment breaking and ending with fractured ribs and a broken face.

              He sure does end up getting all busted up a lot while "exercising." A couple years ago he got a nasty black eye and dislocated his shoulder while jogging. He said that he was leaning against a car and slipped during his morning jog.

                  Possibly this only happens in Vegas, but my consolation is that politicians as slimy as him are probably going to see a lot more of this given the people they have to associate with to stay elected.

                    Reid, 75, suffered a concussion, three broken ribs and broken bones near his right eye when an exercise band broke and he fell.
                    Yeah. Right.

                      All joking aside, Harry Reid's historically been buddy-buddy with just about every single thug in Vegas:

                      Reid has Four Sons who Work for a Law Firm that Defends MobstersReid was Investigated for Accepting Mob Bribes as Head of the Nevada Gaming Commission
                      Cleanface was the codename Agosto gave Reid
                      Whenever we say something observably true, like the Democratic Party is a fraudulent criminal conspiracy against the interests of the American public, Harry Reid's always there to provide the "how" and the "why".
