I would like to explain why I rather not to write about latest situation at my work (Minnesota State Capitol) regarding Senator Amy Koch and former staffer Michael Brodkorb. I wanted to get my point across so people can understand why I chose not to write about latest scandal at the Capitol.
Due to my nonpartisan job at the Capitol, I decided not to write about Amy Koch and Michael Brodkorb scandal. Let the matters be handled alone by Senate Human Resources Department, Secretary of Senate Office and Senate Rules and Administration subcommittee on Ethical Conduct. I have no comment on the situation since I am staying out of this matter. I am not on anyone’s side and just staying out of it.
I only can write about election, events or good things about what are going on at the Capitol or in politics. I hope my readers can understand that I need to keep my job and as I stated that my job is nonpartisan, I cannot report on what is going on with my coworkers such as Amy Koch situation. All I can say people do make mistakes but need to respect them even if they are not brightest light on Christmas tree and they do deserve privacy so I leave the scandal out of this blog. I do not want to cause any conflict or rift between me and my coworkers.
We are one big family in the Legislature, and we have to respect each other even if there are bad situations or conflicts. I hope that the Amy Koch situation gets resolved soon so we can move on by time we start new session in 2012.
Again, please understand and thank you. I would appreciate people do same thing leave situation handled at my work by the Senate and let people move on with their lives.
What a great post. You are a great asset to Minnesota politics. In the same lofty spirit Democrats should commit to supporting *no* Koch ethics complaint to protract this destructive mess. But they won't. Ask Democrats John Lesch and Alice Hauseman, engineers of an ambush ethics complaint against Greg Davids, why not. Democrats will file a Koch ethics complaint under the guise of "needing more information". That's politics, unfortunately. It's a shame.
ReplyDeleteAdmirable of you to stay out of the fray. You enjoy a good working relationship with both sides of the isle. Probably a good idea to keep it that way.
ReplyDeleteIt makes sense and probably the the best thing for you. You are a very nice and forgiving individual.
