Harry Reid had an accident while exercising, the Senate Democratic leader's office tells reporters.

Here's the full 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.”

Translation: The mob just punished him for November’s loss of the Senate.

Yeah, it must have been that machine just jumped out and grabbed him. Or he ran into a doorknob. Or he walked into the cabinet door.

We will never know who did this...but I would like to shake his hand.

Sounds like someone gave him a well deserved beating. I wonder who that piece of exercise equipment might be?

Merely establishing the basis for his 2015 income.

75 years old. I’m 9 years younger and this would slow me way down. I predict he retires in the next month or so.

That’s a shame... He didn’t get any blood on the equipment, did he?

He was carrying a bag of cash from the unions out the door to the bank and it fell on him.

If he broke ribs in his face, was he eating BBQ?

Poor Harry. Broken ribs and face in an excercising accident.
There’s gotta be much more to this story but we’ll never hear it.

Probably his friends in the Mob got to him for screwing up their solid majority in the Senate.

For this very reason, it's never advisable to exercise with a face full of ribs.

Too bad the exercise equipment didn’t have more of a killer instinct.
