He was using an elastic band with his hands - the bungee cord type with handles - while he was jogging on a treadmill at the same time. The handle slipped and struck his eye and he then fell down on the treadmill and did the rest of the damage. Nothing as exciting as getting beaten up.

He is supposed to have a full-time security detail assigned to him from the US Capitol Police to keep the citizen riff-raff away.

He was so corrupt when he worked for the Gaming Commission that he should have known there was going to be a comeuppance some day. The mobsters don’t forgive easily.

If he double-crossed anyone with any power at all, he has been warned. They won’t go quietly into that good night.

Harry keeps Larry on a short rope. Or tries to...he remembers Jimmeh Cahtah’s brother Billy...

Larry got arrested for drunk and disorderly, plus resisting arrest, and he had the facial lacerations to prove he was innocent. Harry said it was “private family business.” I wonder now if the “beating” Larry took was a warning to Harry that he didn’t heed.

Could Reid have come across one of Obama’s “sons” while he was walking the streets of Searchlight, NV? I wonder if he could have been the victim of a knock-out game gone perfectly.

Here’s my theory: Harry Reid attended a party with a group of Hollywood celebrities, when he and Rosie O’Donnell both reached for the last piece of pie at the same time.

Reporter: What’s the brand of the exercise equipment that caused your injury?

Reid: Beats me.

It wasn’t gambling but more likely the property swap that went away when that rancher stood up to the Feds and got to keep his land. Lots of money didn’t change hands like it was supposed to have happened.

“the last piece of pie”

Considering it is Rosie O’Donnell you are talking about, I tend to think of another word that begins w/ the letter “p” that she would want a “piece” of. The word is related to cats.

How many people have had a seriously bruised face TWICE? I guess I'm just lucky because I've never had a SERIOUSLY BRUISED FACE.

His current injury results from a left hook to the jaw and another to the eye.

Oh, I’ve seen these. I had three elderly aunts and uncles. They all went through Alzheimers. They would fall over stuff all of the time.

The key to a fall injury bruise is the arms. Unless you are knocked out cold, there are always bruises on the arms. Or at his age, broken hips, or shoulders.

The indications on his face are from a whooping.

It’s got to be someone he knows, otherwise we’d hear about an assault arrest.. Mafia boss in Vegas most likely.

So, who is powerful enough to beat him up, get away with it without any questions being asked, and scare him into retirement? It seems like the local state mob wouldn’t be enough.

A local mob with the goods on Harry for decades of felonies would have enough power to beat him up and keep him quiet about it. It definitely wasn't Obama or the DOJ. If they wanted Harry, they'd just prosecute him for his obvious corruption, like they suddenly decided to do with Menendez.

A local mob...

I would think that Harry could get the FEDs to protect him from the local mob. They’ve gone after, and destroyed, many mob bosses before. John Gotti died in prison. Raymond Patriarcha got put away. Vincent “the Chin” had his activities curtailed, and so on.

Then again, I’m not from anywhere near Nevada. Maybe those guys are more untouchable than the mob families on the East Coast that have been taken down.

I think the real question is who gives a damn as long as he’s leaving. 

No, the real question is, if the gay FBI, CIA, NSA, DNA, and the Secret Service do NOT make a strong public showing of actually investigating who had the audacity to do this to a top government official, then how do we know that, say, John Roberts wasn't also threatened with physical harm if he doesn't vote the right way?

How do we regain confidence that our representative government isn't under the threat of death by an unknown shadow organization if our security apparatus fails to investigate this incident to the fullest?

How do we know it wasn't the Chinese or the Russians who did this?

So, whenm he’s retired and loses the protectorate of the US Gov’t, can we expect him to disappear one night like Jimmy Hoffa?

I live in the Las Vegas Valley, but there are LOTS of things no one tells me. And since I don’t run in the same circles as Harry (thank Heaven for small favors!) I can’t really address that question intelligently.

I think we will all hear less and less of him. :o]

The feds could protect him physically, no question. The NSA and FBI could destroy any mob that threatened him, for example if he was a crusading DA going after the mob. But that's not what he is, he was their lawyer for decades. He knows where bodies were buried, and they know things on him that he never wants to see the light of day. He could sic the feds on his associates, and they might go to jail, but then the mob would release a storm of information on him that would be devatating. He can't have that, and so he has to accept their beat-down without fighting back.

That's my theory, anyway.

Your theory is a good one.
