While we await today's update of the Glorious Leader's Hawaiian vacation, here is an update from Nevada on the outgoing senate majority leader's health condition. From ABC [6]:
Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid was injured today in an accident while exercising at his home in Henderson, Nevada.
According to a statement from the Nevada Senator's office, Reid was hurt after a piece of equipment he was using broke, which caused him to fall. He broke a "number of ribs and bones in his face," but his doctors expect a full recovery.
Reid was first brought to St. Rose Dominican Hospital in Henderson, outside of Las Vegas, and was then transferred to University Medical Center in Las Vegas for further testing. He was "admitted overnight as a precaution."
Reid's office says the 75-year-old will return to Washington, DC this weekend and will be back in the office Tuesday when the 114th congress convenes.
We wish the Nevada senator a speedy recovery although we are confident that with John Kerry's "facial reconstruction doctor" available, and paid for with Reid's Obamacare insurance policy...... Harry will be back and on that bike, so to say, in no time.
