Good to see politcs put aside
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid thanked Sen. Rand Paul, an ophthalmologist, for providing “expert advice” while he tries to regain sight after a freakish New Year’s Day workout accident. The Democratic leader underwent surgery in his right eye and has been sporting dark glasses for weeks.
Paul, a GOP presidential hopeful often at odds with Reid, was presiding Wednesday in the Senate chamber as Reid thanked him from the floor for being “so kind and thoughtful and considerate in visiting with me, giving me encouragement and some expert advice.”
The Democratic leader said he has “hope for better sight.”
“I really appreciate it very, very much,” said Reid, adding that he wanted Paul’s constituents in Kentucky to know of their senator’s kindness.
