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.”

If he were signed up with Obamacare he might not get to see his doctor. And he might have “delay of care” because of his age.

Wonder how long before the internet purge begins and Photoshop removes him from WH photos.

Sounds more like he tripped on a rug and fell flat on his face.

*wink, wink*

It may have been a mob hit seeing as he lost the Senate.

He was doing kinky exercises with his dominatrix. Next time he will pad his leather suit more.

He’s have to be impossibly fragile. In that case he should be nowhere near exercize equipment to begin with. Or anywhere but a pillowed room. Mt Grandmother in her mid 90s was not that fragile.

why is it... every once in a while our political leadership shows up looking like someone beat the shit out of them? This has been happening for decades.

Harry had a warning 'black eye' in 2011.

Sometimes I wonder if we really know what’s going on in the world and who is really in charge.

It's obvious something very bad happened to America, and it was decades back.

Here is another time back in 2011 ole Harry had an unfortunate mishap while exercising:

I wouldn't want to be anywhere near Harry the next few times he starts his car up. He might have another "accident" while turning the key. That kind of accident is common in Vegas.

Perhaps he was bench-pressing a copy of the ACA without a spotter.

Found an article that says he was on an exercise bike. When's the last time you've heard of an exercise bike breaking up.

If anything, his foot slipped off the pedals.

Since he had another "exercise" accident a few years back, it may be that this dude is sick and those "accidents" are in fact strokes.

The senator from the home state of Las Vegas may have other masters. How are his kneecaps?

Exercising?

Hillary usually says it was due to a 'blood clot'.

Here's a picture of the 'exercise equipment' he was using when the accident occurred.

“break a number of ribs and bones in his face.”

Ahh, the Oxford comma. Or perhaps Reid, as contorted on policy as he often is, does have ribs in his face?
