Harry Reid's Wife, Daughter Injured In Auto Accident
— Dave in Texas

Just saw this on Twitter via SnB. His wife has a fractured back and neck, and a broken nose, and his daughter neck injuries and cuts.

Their vehicle was rear-ended by a semi-truck as they drove on a Washington highway, Summers said. Lana ReidÂ’s injuries also are not life-threatening, the spokesman said.

Both were admitted to Inova Fairfax Hospital in Falls Church, Virginia, said hospital spokesman Tony Raker. Summers said both were conscious and “can feel their extremities.”

The injuries are described as non life-threatening, but certainly serious. Best wishes for their speedy recovery. I've got a wife and two adult girls, and I've gotten that phone call too. It sucks.

Updated, broken back and neck. Damnnn. Thanks PajamaMomma for the reading for comprehension thingy.

14 To all of you criticizing me (in the last thread) about going back to DC so quickly:

Give me a break, you and I all know I'll be spending more time with my family next year.

Posted by: Harry Reid at March 11, 2010 03:09 PM (Xsi7M)

15 I wasn't feeling so bad for Hairy until I saw "broken back."  Yikes!  A fender bender is not something to wish on anyone, but serious MV accident injuries completely suck.  Hope they get better soon and without the nagging injuries that all too often follow.

Plus, it's not like they tell that buffoon what to do.  His dominatrix nancy does that.

20 His wife is 69. This is an extremely serious injury for anyone, especially for someone who is older.

This is bad.

And, as a husband and a father, he should be in the hospital with them, not in DC.

22 I think now would be a good time for Mr. Reid to take retirement about 7 months early to tend to the care and rehabilitation of his dear family. The nation can function well without him, although it will be hard. (/sarcasm, last part of sentence only). Health and well-being to the Reid family. (They had better news than two families did today here in Atlanta this morning; two fatal crashes before 9AM.)

@7:  He could spend time with them now.  He could take a break from trying to Polpotify the medical industry.  Its obvious he cares more about establishing Communism in America than about his wife and daughter. 

And Reid, if you happen to read about this, put a lid on the bitching and whining.  I'm not trash talking your family; if anything, I seem to care more about them than you do.

Did Maher really say that about Chuck Norris?  If so, I'm thinking it wasn't to his face.  I remember one time a Truther was disrupting Maher's show, and he put on a tough guy act--after the idiot was already subdued and was being removed from the room by security.

58 I don't care how twisted Reid is, and yeah, he's a very nasty person, this isn't karma and he didn't deserve this, nor did his family.  And hoping that he leaves congress over this is just a little too zealous.  No, we don't need him to leave congress.  He's the elected Senator from NM until he loses in November, and we don't need any help beating health care... we already won that contest anyway.

I suspect that a lot of liberals saw how classy the conservatives were being, and decided to don their moby outfits and pretend to be conservatives gleeful at this.  But that's just not how the right feels about this kind of thing.  Then again, there's always a douche in every crowd, left or right or anything else.

This man deserves the basic level of respect.  Even though he's a snake and has really harmed the country, he did so democratically and the place for outrage is in the political realm, berating his ideas and manners and getting voters to fix the problem.  Wishing ill on his family is something I doubt many Tea partiers or conservatives would do.

Umm..Considering Harry Reid is trying to destroy America, I don't have a lot of sympathy for him. For his wife and daughter, I do.

Exactly.  In fact, Mrs. Reid, you might want to consider divorce, since your husband doesn't love you enough to leave Washington to be with you in your time of need.

88 Cicero, indeed the right does elect a leader all the time.

And when it does, it always values comity and niceness.  Often this is the right's undoing.  Bush withstood ugliness with class.  Mccain was fucking absurdly nice to the left.

So yeah, they do.  and if someone hates Reid so much that they are pleased with this story, they just aren't in the tent.  I decide.  It's my call.  If they don't like it, so what?  I still win this kind of thing, every single time, and I know it and they know it.

No sweat though,  Reid is going to lose his election and he'll always be known for his ugliness.  But I still hope his family comes through this and feel sympathy for them.

@68:  If I'm being a douche, which I may very well be, it's because I've been a resident of Nevada--not New Mexico--and had this POS as my Senator for the last 24 years.  To say he was elected democratically is a bit of a stretch.  He only had one competitive race, in 1998 against John Ensign, and he won that after the vote counting computers in Washoe County, an Ensign stronghold, conveniently failed--by 200 votes. 

To understand why a POS like Reid can get elected over and over, you have to understand the corrupt casino culture of Nevada.  You may think that Reid is hugely popular; you'd be very wrong.  In fact, the GOP and Democrats in this state both get huge sums of money from the casinos, and the people who control the Nevada GOP in every other election made sure that no good Republican candidate ran.  Yes, that's right:  the Nevada GOP has thrown the 1986, 1992, and 2004 elections by order of their casino masters.

They tried to do the same in this election:  numerous GOP big-names in Nevada either openly endorsed Reid (political fundraiser Sig Rogich) or helped him with fundraising (Reno mayor Bob Cashell).  (Cashell now claims he never supported Reid, and that he only appeared at a fundraiser to "help Reno"; this didn't stop Reid from running an online ad listing Cashell as one of the Republicans supporting his candidacy).  The reason this game isn't working this time is that Reid is too well-known now; they can't pass him off as a moderate Democrat good ol' boy any more.

I see maybe two comments where Harry Reid is wished ill, and exactly zero wishing ill upon his family.  Hardly a basis for twisting one's panties, I'd say.

Even so, I'm sure Tony Snow's family would be impressed by your concern for the need to moderate expressions of disapproval of one's political adversaries.

103 109 So if we were under Obamacare, what kind of health care would his wife and daughter be entitled to?

Only the best, I'm sure.

Because Reid is a member of the Elite, his family would not be subjected to the debacle that is Obamacare.

They're our betters you see and deserve a different set of rules. Didn't you get the memo?

In my mind, it's not so much the kind of health care she QUALIFIES FOR, but whether there will be any  AVAILABLE,,,or will the system be so overwhelmed with 40 million new people clammoring to fill the government mandates of what is required, that the care will be limited and/or rationed.

I don't know what kind of car they were in, but I'd guess it wasn't a Prius or Smart Car- something they're no doubt grateful for.

On the other hand, if Global Warming wasn't responsible for heating up the truck's brake pads resulting in a longer stopping distance, this accident might never occurred.  According to the IPCC, car accidents will increase by 98.7% by 2020 due to "Climate Change".*

Harry Reid is not engaged in politics. He is engaged in a soft coup to subvert the constitution and become part of the overlord class. Passing laws without voting on them? WTF? Taking over private companies and throwing out the rightful equity holders in violation of bankruptcy precedent? If thugs invaded my home, shot my dog and planned worse for my family, and one answered his cel phone to learn that his wife had just been rear ended by a semi, thoughts and prayers for his family would not be the first thing on my mind.

To expand on what I mentioned earlier, regarding the GOP's willingness to sell out its own candidates in Nevada:

I suspect the GOP establishment does this in many other states as well.  Every conservative always assumes that states like Massachusetts and New Jersey have leftist politicians because they have weird leftist voters.  I suspect this not to be the case.  What those states DO have, is a very corrupt political class. 

The voters don't reject the GOP in those states because they are turned off by the right wing; look at their candidates, all members of the Rockefeller country club set.  No, they reject the GOP because the state GOP establishment, like the Dem establishment in those states, is on the take and throwing elections. 

Look at what happened in New Jersey and Massachusetts once candidates were able to base their fundraising online instead of by kissing up to government-connected businesses.  If the GOP gets rid of the David Frum types, who are corrupt and on the take, we could have a 60-seat majority in the Senate, and a 300-seat majority in the House.  At least.

Best wishes that Mrs. Reid and her daughter have a speedy recovery and don't suffer too much.

That said, I can't understand why Harry checked in on his wife and then headed back to DC. I don't care what your job is (even the President of the US for that matter) if your loved one is lying in the hospital in pain after an accident, you should be there for a bit longer than just a cursory drop by. Especially in this day and age with laptops and cell phones and fax machines and everything else. And, regardless of the protestations of your loved one if they are telling you to leave. So, that part of the story, if true, pisses me off.

I don't know curious, most of the guys I know would stay with their wives, no matter what she says, if she's in the hosptial. Not only for support but also people who are medicated have a difficult time following what is being said about their condition and it is advisable to have someone there to listen and to advocate.

Even when my marriage was at its very lowest point and my husband and I were not getting along, he was with me at the hospital when I had to have some tests run.

170 @88 "No coincidence that they ended up at Inova. Believe it or not, they have an "executive" floor, with all expected superlative services, bells and whistles. I wonder if that is part of Obama's bill?" Not a "coincidence"; Inova Fairfax is the closest big hospital to where the accident happened. And Inova's far from the only hospital with an "executive" floor. I doubt even Harry's super-duper insurance would cover the upgrade. If Mrs R ends up in the executive suite, it will be because either Harry paid for the upgrade out of pocket or the hospital gives her the room as a courtesy. Her condition might not permit it though. Those suites can't always handle patients who are seriously ill. Executive suites are great for hospitals because they get the money up front. So when Princess Falafel of Backwardsistan comes to have her ingrown toenail removed and books the entire executive suite for herself and her entourage, that's cold hard cash for the hospital to use to finance the money-losing stuff like shock-trauma and ER care for illegal immigrants.

And if I am mistaken and she is his enemy, then I wish her the best.  I have, not without sadness, cut off more than one person who went too far into the heart of Leftist darkness - people who were close, but espoused too much treason for me to stomach.  Had my parent been of the Harry R. level of scumbaggery then that relationship would be ended, and if I married and my wife turned commie there would be a divorce.  I expect nothing higher of them than what I would demand of myself.

So I'm reading a CBS news story about the death blow ObamaCare may be dealt by the Senate parliamentarian and this jumped out at me:

Democrats were planning on bypassing Republican obstruction -- as well as reaching a compromise on the legislation within their own party -- with a multi-step process: The House would pass the health care bill already approved by the Senate.

No bias here, folks.  None at all.

It's in the sidebar on the front page. The money quote from the article was:

Hanks says. “How could they just pick up their lives and get on with the rest of us? Back in World War II, we viewed the Japanese as ‘yellow, slant-eyed dogs’ that believed in different gods. They were out to kill us because our way of living was different. We, in turn, wanted to annihilate them because they were different.

Doesn't sound like he loves her much to me. He'd rather engage in partisan bitterness & rancor than be by the bedsides of the people he's supposed to love, one of whom he vowed to be beside "in sickness & in health". By flying back to D.C., he just broke his marriage vows. It was a disgustingly wicked thing to do. What else can I say?

273 Terrible news about those ladies.  I hope they'll be all right.

Regarding Dingy Harry, of whom I am no fan, racing back to DC - the hospital to which his wife and daughter were admitted is about a mile off the Beltway.  Hop on and you're back on Capitol Hill in 20 minutes.  They probably live somewhere in the area.

They'll get excellent care at that hospital, incidentally.  Inova is one of the best health care systems in the nation, and that branch in particular is stellar.  My daughter was born there.

From an old Harry political ad:

The voice of Landra Reid is heard: "You can disagree on Harry Reid's greatest accomplishment. Some say that it is being born in a small wooden shack and rising above it to become a U.S. senator. Others talk about the laws he's passed. . . . But for me, Harry Reid's greatest accomplishment is being a devoted husband and father who helped raise five exceptional children. His being a senator is great, but having the love and respect of your family is the ultimate accomplishment."

319 "Virginia State Police said Mrs. Reid and her daughter were traveling northbound on I-95 in stop-and-go traffic when their Honda Odyssey was rear-ended by a tractor-trailer loaded with rolls of plastic. The impact forced the Reid family's minivan to rear-end a Jeep Grand Cherokee, which in turn struck a Chevrolet Cobalt."

320 Honda Odyssey is a damn fine vehicle.  I wouldn't put my wife and kid in a fucking Government Motors POS either.  Honda's trucks are crap, but otherwise they know what the fuck they are doing except when it comes to styling.

I see maybe two comments where Harry Reid is wished ill, and exactly zero wishing ill upon his family.  Hardly a basis for twisting one's panties, I'd say.

Even so, I'm sure Tony Snow's family would be impressed by your concern for the need to moderate expressions of disapproval of one's political adversaries.

First Ted Kennedy gets a year of life extending medical care, then 86 year old Frank Lautenberg gets diagnosed with stomach cancer and now Harry Reid's wife and daughter are hospitalized with serious injuries.  I wonder what the outcome would have been if Rahm Emmanuel's brother was doing the life-cost calculations on these patients! Harry, Frank, and Teddy (when alive) must be doing some serious thinking right abou now on the great medical care we have in this country.....and what their plans might just do to it!  Still, prayers.

I wish a speedy recovery to Senator Reid's wife and daughter. They have my utmost sympathy, as would anyone injured in such an incident. I've already said prayers on their behalf.

That said, I strongly dislike their husband and father, both on a personal and a professional level. Were I to be in a position to do so, not only would I refuse to shake his hand, I would absolutely refuse to even acknowledge his presence. I believe him to be traitorous, corrupt and criminal to the core. Nevada should be ashamed of itself for electing him. I know only one Mormon who wouldn't jump at the opportunity to dress him down with some seriously un-Mormon language for his actions in Congress. I strongly doubt he attends his church regularly, as a lot of people would probably like to give him a piece of their minds on his behavior. The sooner he's booted out of office, the better.
