Fake news strikes again <\/strong><\/p>\n

Several \u2018reporters\u2019 attacked Rand Paul Monday when it emerged the Senator is to visit Canada to have hernia surgery, leveling claims that Paul is a hypocrite for going to a country with socialized medical care.<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, a simple Google search or a phone call (remember those?) would have helped the media understand that Paul is actually going to a PRIVATE facility that specializes in hernia care \u2013 the EXACT OPPOSITE of socialized medicine.<\/p>\n

Paul is undergoing surgery again following the vicious attack he suffered from a mentally disturbed neighbor last year, who broke six of Paul\u2019s ribs and caused damage to his lungs.<\/p>\n

According to reports<\/a>, the cost of the surgery will be $5,000 to $8,000 with an additional \u00a0$4,000 in medical expenses, all of which Paul is suing to recover from Rene Boucher, who was sentenced to just 30 days in prison.<\/p>\n

Some intrepid \u2018journalists\u2019 got a hold of the lawsuit and found out that Senator Paul will undergo an outpatient surgery in Canada later this month at Shouldice Hernia Hospital, a specialist hernia facility.<\/p>\n

In a tweet which has since been deleted, kings of fake news, The Daily Beast, declared that \u201cSen. Rand Paul \u2014 one of the fiercest critics of socialized medicine \u2014 is heading to Canada for surgery.\u201d<\/p>\n

This caused a wave of lunacy to head Paul\u2019s way on Twitter:<\/p>\n
