I find this incredibly humorous... anyone else?

The gay and lesbian community of Minnesota has issued a letter of apology to recently resigned Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch for ruining the institution of marriage and causing her to stray from her husband and engage in an "inappropriate relationship."

"On behalf of all gays and lesbians living in Minnesota, I would like to wholeheartedly apologize for our community's successful efforts to threaten your traditional marriage," reads the letter from John Medeiros. "We apologize that our selfish requests to marry those we love has cheapened and degraded traditional marriage so much that we caused you to stray from your own holy union for something more cheap and tawdry."

​The letter comes on the heels of Koch's own apology, released yesterday, in which she expressed her deep regret for "engaging in a relationship with a Senate staffer." Although the letter did not specify the identity of the other participant in the "inappropriate relationship," it is widely rumored to be former communications chief Michael Brodkorb, who lost several positions with the GOP in the wake of the scandal.

It's times like this when I love the typical Minnesotan.

Can we say schadenfreude?
I personally love it when people are hoist on their own petard.

This couldn't have been any more perfect (except if the staffer was female, maybe).

[the-rukh.livejournal.com]

No I think it's pretty important to the story that it was a heterosexual affair.

[donolectic.livejournal.com]

I agree.

Sarcasm alert (Meh! no subject line)

Another marriage ruined by the secret gay brigade.

The Gay Agenda is so big (how big is it?), it's always great to check off a task.

As a Minnesotan, I find this hilarious! Kudos to the author of the letter.

[stout-john.livejournal.com]

Ditto!

Is it me or is her face too small for her head?

[unnamed525.livejournal.com]

She does have a rather fat head.

[angry-scotsman.livejournal.com]

She carries a little extra weight in her face although not nearly as much as she carries on her ass. Maybe Sensenbrenner should offer commentary on her as well.

WHY is it the "family value" guardians seem to be
filled with adulterers??

[bdoing.livejournal.com]

"We need to stand up for family values, or else who could possibly resist?"

Same reason Orson Scott Card's a homophobe.

Or Marcus Bachmann has the job he does. "Dear lord, and congress, please save my from myself! Make my own desires illegal so I am less likely to actually do what I want to do."

so sad, because i love his books...

[telemann.livejournal.com]

They're obsessed with sex, and then want to control what other people do for sex. It's a pathology.

[angry-scotsman.livejournal.com]

Because one's own faults are those which one is likely to find most offensive in others.

Mean people suck. It works on several levels in Koch's case. :^)

This was awesome.

I like how the community has grown so comfortable with ourselves now that we can do this.

I also like how easily this sort of thing can go viral. The HRC would never do anything like this, that's why it's so awesome that everyone's seeing it anyway.
