Harry Reid to undergo more eye surgery Wednesday
Washington Post ^ | 2/9/2015 | Ed O'Keefe

Posted on 02/09/2015 4:17:59 PM PST by mdittmar

Senate Minority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) will undergo another round of surgery  Wednesday to repair his eye following exercise-related injuries, his office said late Monday.

The procedure is a follow-up surgery on his right eye and will be conducted at George Washington University Hospital in Washington, according to a statement from Reid’s office.

“This is a necessary step to assist in recovering full vision in his right eye,” the statement said. “His recovery will require him to miss the rest of the week but he is not expected to miss any more time in the office beyond that.”

Ask any Democrat. The Outfit doesn’t exist. It vanished, like a fart in a tornado, by coincidence, the day a Chicago politician, Obama, was elected...

I’m pretty sure surgery can’t cure his myopia

More surgery, on such an old useless man?

The manufacturer of Ried’s exercise equipment is Hillerich & Bradsby. They make the Louisville Slugger, the finest piece of “exercise equipment” ever made.

They are bringing in a proctologist to work on the eye because he has had his head up his ass for a hell of a long time.

They do use these things more and more, for stretching, light resistance, and so on.

He fell. It was the fall that did the damage.

I heard that he was considering a rectum transplant but was fearful that the rectum would reject him?

Loved your suggestion....

I am LOL, for we all have guessed this was not the result of any exercise accident. They need to report the truth, just ask Brian Williams of NBC, he will tell you that made up stories (lies) catch up to you.

Will be very interesting to see what he really does about this..
Personally I don't think he is physically fit to do any type of exercise, and he is lazy, as he is waited on hand and foot and when one gets to age 75 and someone does everything for them, they become very worthless...

HARRY REID..IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF, AGE MATTERS.

But...But,

His handlers said it occurred in his bathroom, now that is strange.

This entire story is strange..almost a Brian Williams type, ya think?

Are you saying that Harry’s problems are compounded by
a severe case of Cranial Rectitis.

He should “work out” more often. He seems to have a real knack for it.
