WHAT HAPPENS IN HENDERSON, NEVADA …
WHAT HAPPENS IN HENDERSON, NEVADA …
|| By FITSNEWS || According to Democratic leader Harry Reid – who recently announced his impending retirement from the U.S. Senate – the severe facial injuries (and broken ribs) he suffered on New Year’s Day were due to an exercise accident involving a resistance band.
“The band broke, and it catapulted me backwards onto one side,” Reid explained at the time. “I crashed into a series of cabinets we have and, fortunately, it missed my temple by just a little tiny bit and it hit me on my right eye and it broke a number of bones around my eye and broke four ribs.”
Is that really what happened, though?
A number of conspiracy theories have emerged related to Reid’s accident – which is finally beginning to receive some scrutiny from the mainstream media.
One national blogger who has been exploring the Reid saga is John Hinderaker of the PowerLine Blog. In his latest installment, Hinderaker offers an interesting counter-narrative for Reid’s injuries – an alleged fight between the powerful leader and his brother, Larry Reid.
According to the website, Larry Reid showed up at an Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meeting on New Year’s Eve in Henderson, Nevada. He allegedly had “blood on his clothing” and a “swollen left hand.” He told attendees that he’d been in a fight with a family member – and was afraid the Secret Service was coming to get him.
No one at the meeting thought much of Larry Reid’s story until a month later, when his face was plastered all over the news in connection with a Boulder City, Nevada driving under the influence/ battery/ weapons arrest.
At that point, several attendees at the AA meeting recognized him – and connected the timing of his appearance with the injuries sustained by Harry Reid.
One attendee at the meeting even told his story to a local television station – but was told the station wasn’t interested.
Hmmmmm …
Like that local station, we’re not especially interested in what happened to Harry Reid on New Year’s Eve/ Day, either … although it’s interesting how quickly and dutifully the mainstream media accepted the Senator’s version of events regarding the injuries he sustained.
No, we’re far more interested in the media’s failure to explore his Yucca conspiracy with U.S. president Barack Obama – which has exposed taxpayers (especially South Carolina taxpayers) to serious injury.
That’s the mystery we believe needs to be investigated
” the brother did it.”
Looks like Larry Reid is the sole white sheep in a family of black sheep. Or not.
We finally know what it takes to get Harry Reid out of the Senate. I wonder if it would work for Feinstein or Schumer.
And now Harry is blind in one eye? That’s a pretty serious family fight. Family holidays won’t be the same.
5.56mm
I sure hope so. But even if he didn't, I do not care.
This is one of those stories that is SO deliciously, salaciously, malevolently, good that I CHOOSE to believe it, even if it is not true.
;-)
Thats right up there with the “Traditional Kennedy Easter Weekend” in West Palm… Just assault and battery instead of Rape.
Gotta love the liberal diversity
Larry and Harry
Any MORE of them out there?
Now we know Mitt does not resort to physical violence.
Heck; VERBAL violence seems to escape him!
However...

Only of Larry's a Mormon; too.
Only IF Larry's a Mormon; too.
“Am I my brother’s beater?”
Harry is a Mormon.
He is blind in BOTH of them.
Harry, Larry, and ...Jerry... and then there is cousin Perry, and we can’t forget aunt Terry.
Not the Godfather movie..Mo Greene I believed was slightly based on Ben "Bugsy" Segal and the corrupt Senator in Godfather II was well before dingy harry showed up in the Senate in the mid 80's..however, I believe the Dick Smothers character in Casino was harry..sure did act like the weasel that reid is..
There are two Reid brothers.
One is a notorious out-of-control lawbreaker with a lengthy criminal history.
The other is just an everyday drunk.
And Larry got all the good looks.
The first Championship bout will be a rematch between the loathsome "Dingy" Harry" and his brother, Larry "The Treadmill" Reid.
FYI, Dingy Harry is a Mormon.
Old Port was one scary dude.
