'More machine than man now': Harry Reid fought the treadmill — and 'the treadmill won' [video]

As Twitchy reported, Harry Reid, recently injured in an, um, “exercise accident,” was forced to “work from home” at the Ritz-Carlton today. But he was nice enough to record a message for the 114th Congress:

He spouted the same sort of soft-voiced drivel as always, natch:

From @SenatorReid "middle class is being squeezed literally out of existence." https://t.co/ryInw3IXis @CEAChair call your office

But honestly, did he think anyone would be paying any attention to what he was saying when his face looks like that?

That must’ve been one hell of an exercise accident …
