Was Harry Reid beat up by mobsters? Is that the real reason for his eye injury that he blamed on exercise equipment? Harry Reid being beaten up by mobsters on New Years Day is just the latest rumor as to what really happened to Dingy Harry Reid. Supposedly, according to the rumor, Reid was unable to deliver a deal that the mobsters demanded. In addition to failing the get the deal for the mobs, rumors say Reid made a comment that the mobsters considered disrespectful, and one of them beat him up.

Harry should place a paper bag over his head until he gets well.

I'd prefer he use a plastic bag.

ROTFLMAO. Is that Obama?

[Slyfox]

If Harry, and his brother here, were using similar exercise equipment then you'd think that they just might file a lawsuit against the manufacturer.

Anybody want to keep an eye out for any filings?

What we wish happened to either Harry or O...

Under normal cicumstances I do not rejoice when something like this happens to another human being. But in this case it is diffucult not to celebrate that someone was able to make him an offer he could not refuse.

I was going to say something about Reid being drunk, A bear and that number beside his head, but it might get me banned.

I sure am glad this putz will soon be gone. Can we send Mitch the turtle and Boehner with him?

I keep telling all of you people that dirty harry was at a party and refused to pay the hooker, She bitch slapped the hell out of him.
Dirty Harry to Hooker: “Do you know who I am”.
Hooker to Dirty Harry: “Yeah, a cheap, two bit, crook”.
And the beat down ensues.

In those twenty-odd years spent in the Air Force and using their gym services...I’ve only seen two accidents with ‘equipment’. I watched a guy stumble on the treadmill while jogging and it threw the guy back against the wall (ambulance required but nothing broke). And I’ve seen a cable come loose on a weight machine. To sustain both broken ribs and serious damage to his eye socket....it just doesn’t fit any type of conceivable accident with gym equipment.

If you ask me...the better story to say was that you fell down a stairway. That might make better sense.

It reminds of Hillary’s episode in the final weeks of the Secretary of State job. They avoided the term ‘stroke’ as much as possible....yet she wears the glasses that a typical ‘stroke’ victim would wear

+1 I’ve always thought that his reported wounds looked a lot more like a full body impact rather than getting hit a few times.

In the words of Patton (as played by George C Scott), “I don’t know, but if I could find that s.o.b. I’d pin a metal on him.”
