Senator Reid released from hospital with broken ribs and face
Wishing the former Senate Majority Leader a speedy recovery
Senator Reid was released from the hospital today after sustaining several broken bones in an exercising accident. Yesterday a workout machine he was using broke, causing him to fall.
His office issued the following statement:
“On Thursday, Senator Reid received treatment at University Medical Center in Las Vegas for injuries sustained in an accident he suffered while exercising at home in Henderson.
“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.
“Senator Reid will return to Washington this weekend and be in the office Tuesday as the Senate prepares to reconvene. His doctors expect a full recovery.
“Senator Reid was first brought to St. Rose Dominican Hospital in Henderson by his security detail. He was then transferred to UMC for further testing, where he was admitted overnight as a precaution.”
According to ABC News, Reid spent the day, “talking to fellow senators, friends and staff and preparing for the Senate’s return,” his office said, adding Reid is “ready to get back to work.”
While we don’t always agree with his politics, we wish the Senator a speedy recovery.

“Senator Reid released from hospital with broken ribs and face”
Somewhat of an incomplete headline. Try this,
“Senator Reid released from hospital with broken ribs and face along with the same caustic bile and hatred of American values he’s always had, a hatred fostered by Democrat Party”
Bravo!!
There is more to this story than is being reported. The cover story for his injuries is crap.
“The feel-good news story of the day!”
Yeah, I know. I am not a nice person. The milk of human kindness has curdled in the soul-shaped hole inside me as I watch my country be destroyed.
If I was to hear that he had both broken facial bones and broken ribs in absence of any causative explanation, I would think that somebody had beaten him up. . . . . .
I think Obama cold-cocked him.
Either him or Nancy and Michelle cold-cocked him……
How does an old guy fall hard enough to break his face and ribs, but no damage to hands, wrists, or arms?
Harry had a similar mysterious accident some years ago, too.
Get well soon, you old crook, you won’t want to miss Mitch showing how the Senate is supposed to run.
I wonder if Reid can say “Koch Brothers” with a broken jaw.
OK, Harry. Tell us which one of the Koch Brothers kicked your ass.
I hope he gets well and quick. No injury is fun.
I hope he’s back to sparring level soon. There are some fights to be had.
“While we don’t always agree with his politics” … Hmmm, I suppose that is polite understatement. Everything about this worm disgusts me, his politics included.
Maybe L-I doesn’t want the I-R-S pestering them. 🙂
The man is a despicable cockroach who now likely ranks as the single worst human being* in the US since fellow democrat Fred Phelps died.
*With the exception of cannibal murderous child molesters, he’s not as bad as them, as far as I know.
At least Fred Phelps didn’t go around “stealing” elections…..
It would have been a better story had it been reported that Harry Reid had his ass kicked by Thomas Jefferson’s ghost.
I’ve always suspected that he was in an abusive relationship with Obama.
(I know… bad person, denounce myself, blah, blah, blah)
Karma?
I am not ashamed to say this made my day!
Stay classy, guys. He should not be treated like Dick Cheney.
I hope he recovers quickly and fully, and then gets trounced in the legislative arena.
He’s not being treated like dick Cheney was/is by the left. I haven’t read anyone here wish further harm on him.
Many people, myself included, feel nothing but disdain for this skid-mark of a man. OK “skid-mark” may not be classy in the strictest sense of the word but it’s nothing compared to what the left has said about Bush/Cheney/Palin etc…
I don’t want harm to come to him, in fact, I hope he lives a long life. A long lonely life filled with despair and bad food.
I’d agree with you, Buck, if also included “Out of office.”
The former amateur boxer was shadow boxing and his shadow kicked his ass.
I heard he was exercising and fell his rubber duckie.
Let’s be honest: Harry Reid did to himself what most of the nation would have liked to do to him.
Now, if we can vote Squeaker Boehner out and onto the ash-heap of coward history, it’ll be a great, great month.
Class Act, LI
I heard the real reason harry reid broke his face/ribs was because he was actually going down of 0bama. Reid wanted to please his beloved gay marxist so much with a deepthroat bj that he overdid it and broke most of the bones in his face along with almost ripping his whole jaw off in the process of the longest bj in history ever. and in the midst of that chris matthews walked in on them… caught his gay b/f 0bama cheating on him and in a moment of unstoppable libtard rage tingles beat the hell out of harry reid.
Harry Reid must of finally learned his lesson that day.
“Exercise accident”?
Yeah. Riiight.
I wonder who’s little boy old Harry was caught with.
