Former Minnesota Senate majority leader Amy Koch has been a vocal opponent of gay marriage. She tried (unsuccessfully) to amend her state constitution to add language that would make marriage between a man and a woman. Last week this powerful politician announced she’d be stepping down as the majority leader and would not seek re-election in November.
What was the cause of her departure from the State Senate?
The Minnesota Post reports that she was confronted with allegations of an “inappropriate relationship” with a male Senate staffer and those allegations were presented to Senate leaders by other Senate staff members. To further compound the issue, this woman who has been on a crusade to “Save Marriage” apparently is already married – and her philandering apparently was ongoing while she was routinely campaigning to amend the Minnesota Constitution to ensure same sex marriage could never happen in her state.
A sudden case of karma biting Koch in the ass.
One Minneapolis resident took Sen. Koch’s transgressions personally. Since he’s gay, he assumed her marriage’s failure must have something to do with him so he wrote her a letter expressing his sympathies for the break up and acknowledges his role as a gay man. I’ve included an excerpt from his letter below for you.
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. 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.

Too bad she didn’t have an affair with a woman…

I wonder if she’ll reply. I seriously doubt she will but it would be amusing.
