A Breitbart News investigation of the home exercise accident story told by Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) and “sources familiar with the incident” has uncovered facts which appear to discredit his version of events surrounding a New Year’s Day incident that left him with gruesome injuries to his eye, face and ribs. report here

“”Accident”” needs quotes
His brother later being arrested for DUI and battery of police officer, as well as gun violations, has to be a factor in this mobbed up mobbery of a mob job.
He was beaten with a bag / towel filled with oranges.
I don’t know if Rush said anything about this, but Reed doesn’t seem like he kind of guy who would suffer a major accident by a product “failure” without instigating a major lawsuit for damages, whether he was using the product correctly or not.
That said, however, he is old enough to have sustained those kinds of injuries from a relatively minor accident. I think it’s silly for Breitbart to waste its time and reputation going after this story unless they’ve got more than a bunch of floor plans.
Harry Reid is a corrupt, lying worm.
Nothing about him will ever add up.
You know you are getting old when you lose a fight with your blow up doll.
Maybe a tea party group should send the entire Democrat party (and quite a few RINOs) a set of resistance bands. With a message from Mooch to get in shape.
@Tim – totally agree
Whatever happened, it would be nice if the guy(s) would go back and finish the job.
He figured he better quit while he can still see out of one eye.
They made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.
Under the new GOP administration, with a new AG, Harry’s ass would be in the wringer.
Other ways this story doesn’t add up:
There’s no detail about what particular exercise Reid was doing that could have caused this. Did he suffer injuries that look like he was in a car accident from doing concentric curls?
It’s absurd that one of the most powerful people on Earth would be using a cheap, defective elastic band to exercise.
The elastic band, if it snaps, can only strike with the same force that was applied to it and caused it to snap. Reid is 75 years old; he’s not fucking Mr Olympia.
If everything is as Reid says, that a snapped band caused him to jerk his head and hit a …. ? … then he’d have injuries on both sides of his face.
There’s no way a fall to level ground causes fractures in just a couple of ribs and nothing else. If the fall had been so violent that it cracked ribs, it would have also caused severe damage to the back. Reid should be in a wheelchair if that were the case
I’ve been working out for almost fifty years, and I’ve never seen or heard of a workout injury even remotely like Reid’s. I’ve heard of people blowing out their backs and knees and suffering heart attacks and strokes from being idiots, but I have never heard of someone hurting the side of their face before
I think Harry owes the nation a re-enactment.
It was… it was… oh, yeah, I fell into a door knob. Those darned door knobs! Happens all the time. Clumsy me.
Maybe he bumped into Mitt Romney’s tax accountant?
thats a punchable face
I STILL say that he merely caught a tooth on Nancy Pelosi’s elastic rubber THONG!!!!
His wife crossed her legs….
The tranny hookers shot at the NSA kicked dirty old pervert Harry Reid to pieces. He told them to meet him in the NSA parking lot and then had federal agents shoot them up in revenge.
The bruises sticking around all this time could be explained by blood thinners. The fragility of bone for a single fracture can be explained by age. The diffuse nature of the injuries, cannot be explained by what he claimed to have been doing. He should have tried “fallen down the stairs like Joe Pesci in Home Alone”.
And I’m with Dr. Tar. He owes us a re-enactment.
He’s had other “injuries” in the past so I think he’s messing with the Vegas mob. Didn’t his brother get a DUI and something else regarding an officer recently?
Also, the eye looks like it’s oozing and infected. New Years day? And the glass shower door stuff is laughable! It’s a nice size bathroom, but the little pecksniffian’s velocity would have had to have been pretty high to cause all that damage!
Hey Harry! Who cares?
Die Already!
Just Die.
