LOUISVILLE, Ky. - The national panel that approves doctors as board certified said U.S. Senate candidate Rand Paul isn't on the list, even though he has campaigned as holding the endorsement.

The Louisville Courier-Journal reports that the American Board of Medical Specialties, which works with the American Medical Association, doesn't recognize certification by a group Paul founded in 1991 and heads.

1. Pff.

Next thing they'll be telling me my brain surgeon license from the medical school I run out of my basement closet isn't good enough to practice.

Nanny state, I tell you.

2. Well of course he isn't certified

No good Libertarian follows rules or pays dues.

3. There are lots of organizations that claim to "certify" physicians, but only certain

ones are actually recognized, as the article states.

And being "certified" by a "board" that you created is really a joke.

4. Oh, what a web we weave, when first we tempt to deceive.

When Rand finally hits rock bottom, some one toss him a pick and a shovel.
