Ellison approached Goode on the House floor Thursday, introducing himself and offering to meet for coffee. According to Ellison, Goode said he'd be interested in doing that. The subject of Goode's comments didn't come up, Ellison said.
"Look, we're trying to build bridges," Ellison said. "We're trying to help bring about understanding. We don't want issues of misunderstanding and division to exist if they don't have to."
Goode's office did not immediately return phone and e-mail messages for comment.
I wouldn't have done it. I would not turn down HIS offer to reconcile but Goode was the idiot here. There was no misunderstanding of his intent.
