Many have questioned the circumstances under which Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) arrived at a Las Vegas hospital on New Year's Day to be treated for serious injuries, including broken bones on his face and around his eye, which he claimed he sustained after a piece of workout equipment he was using broke, causing him to fall into a cabinet. The Powerline blog is reporting that a man attending an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting in Henderson, Nevada on New Year's Eve who went by the name "Larry" entered the room in an intoxicated condition with blood on his clothing and told attendees of the group session he had been involved in a fight with another family member at a family get-together. The man told the attendees he feared the Secret Service would be coming after him. The attendee, Easton Elliott, didn't think much of it until he saw images of Larry Reid weeks later following his arrest for drunk driving and assaulting a police officer. Easton claims Sen. Reid's home is not far from the location of where the AA meeting was held. Elliott said he contacted other attendees of the AA meeting and they also recognized the Larry who was present for the AA meeting as the same man shown in news reports regarding the arrest of Reid's brother. One of the attendees, according to Easton, contacted Las Vegas' Channel 8 but was told the TV station was not interested in the story.

Mystery solved. We all knew someone beat up Harry Reid pretty damn severely. We just didn't know who did it. A lot of people thought it was a mob guy from Vegas. But now we know it was a member of Harry's loving family, not one of his loving business associates. Now who wants to explain what happened to Mitch McConnell's face?
So much for anonymous...
Reid's excuses that he was injured by his use of rubber-band type exercise equipment rigged to his glass shower door structure was never plausible from the get-go. His resulting injuries alone show that someone beat the holy crap out of his ass (and face). I thought the damage could have been caused by the Nevada union/crime gang he often serves, this gang possibly teaching Reid a lesson or insuring another of their nefarious demands be met by the dastardly SOB (a/k/a Harry Reid).
To hear it may have been family that wreaked such damage upon the old goat's body is nothing short of ironic... but we are still led to back to the first question... "Why?" I doubt the allegation that a brother's alcoholic rage is the sole reason... call me skeptical, but when it comes to the evil Harry Reid, nothing is as it appears.
Is the brother left handed?
Anon 2:50 PM, good observation, looks like he connected with an awesome Left hook!
