Blind...but not stupid.

"'I think really for our viewers it should be understood that I put this into a blind trust,' Frist replied [in January 2003.] 'So as far as I know, I own no HCA stock.'...Two weeks before that interview, M. Kirk Scobey Jr., a Frist trustee, informed the senator in writing that one of his trusts had received HCA stock valued at between $15,000 and $50,000." Fifteen trustee letters obtained by the Post, describing sales and purchases of HCA stock, indicate Frist's been lying about his "blind" trust for years. Poor Catkiller...I bet Iowa suddenly seems a million miles away...
