1. Nice billboard, but who paid for it?

[MyOwnPeace]

2. I don't care.........

who paid for it - it's great!

[33taw]

8. It is great, but you didn't need to answer my question if you didn't care. Just respond to the post

[MyOwnPeace]

11. Little "touchy" from New Year's Eve?

Geez, just telling you MY opinion.

Happy New Year to 'ya!

[33taw]

12. No, you? Happy New Year, enjoy the day!!

A little research will find that this organization is questionable and sets us up democrats to be criticized. I like the billboard, just want it honest.

[Hortensis]

25. I'm with 33taw. ALWAYS: WHO paid, what's the agenda.

NEVER: Too clueless to think it matters.

That said, I love this powerful billboard. Googling the group's name turns up almost nothing, just comments on this billboard and a previous one that said "clueless" instead. I'm guessing so far it's mostly a front for some wealthy check-writer.

[nolabels]

47. The agenda is concealed in these movie skits

[Doitnow]

51. Don't watch what they say. Watch what they DO!

[bluestarone]

30. you are sooo right!! I'd question everything with

Repubs attached to it!!! There's a purpose for it! and it's NOT to help Democrats win anything!!!

[33taw]

41. I am not in charge. I simply asked a question and some folks got upset.

I watched Fox News suck too many people into their messages of hate without question. I feel like we are being sucked into this, maybe not. It would be interesting to see if anyone on this site has actually seen this billboard. Hwy 52 is very long.

[33taw]

43. One last thing, why are you trying to intimidate me? I get to ask legitimate questions.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

54. Yes, you do.

Continue on.

[iluvtennis]

34. +++ Ditto

[MineralMan]

3. This organization:

https://www.bizapedia.com/mn/republicans-for-honesty-in-government.html

Google.

[question everything]

16. Interesting. Any chance this would be mentioned in the strib? I doubt.

All they care is the Stupid Bowl.

[MineralMan]

19. I don't know. I read the Pioneer Press.

The STrib is the "enemy paper."

It may show up on the local TV news, though. I'll watch for it.

[Wellstone ruled]

20. You and I know that is not going to happen.

Taylor and Hubburd will make some calls.

[Beartracks]

52. Cool site.

I'll have to add that my list of "research sites."

9. Thanks, it is odd that they have not had any contributions or expenditures.

[brush]

36. Hah! "Republicans for Honesty in Government"? That's an oxymoron if I ever heard one.

I do like the billboard though.

Hope background info comes out that gets to the bottom of the agenda.

[Juliusseizure]

53. Robert Johnson is the group

Its one guy from MN. with a successful real estate investment company.

Even the hokey name suggests this is a one man operation.

[Politicub]

39. Republicans for honesty in government?

[jpak]

45. America

[Pope George Ringo II]

4. I love it

I'm still hoping for pictures of Nixon and Hoover with "Miss us yet?"

[WhiskeyGrinder]

6. It's not like they weren't told, over and over again.

I'd be surprised if these "Republicans" actually were.

[spanone]

7. guess there are a few sane ones....

too bad there's none in congress

[dalton99a]

10. Well, he came from nowhere - nobody knew anything about him

[Vinca]

13. Wow!

[LakeArenal]

14. Is " Republicans for Honesty in Government"

an oxymoron.. No pun intended... well, maybe, some pun intended..

[SeaDoo77]

29. Republican Brand Is Built On Lies

Honesty of any kind is the enemy of all Republicans.

[logosoco]

15. Sorry, But I ain't buying it!

Trump stands for all the things the Republicans have stood for for a long time now: lower taxes on the rich, gutting regulations that protect the environment and taking reproductive rights away from women.

They own this one.

[handmade34]

21. "Republicans for Honesty in Government"

appears to be 1 man in St Paul... by no means is it the Republican party en masse

[Hayduke Bomgarte]

17. They got they mistake part right, but

The "Republicans for Honesty in Government thing". Who do they expect will fall for that horseshit?

Republicans for Honesty. That's hilarious!

[Fred Sanders]

18. BIG mistake! Got that right! Who cares who paid for it? Some things do not need to parsed.

[Duppers]

22. Wow!!

Better late than never.

[Alice11111]

24. We saw two "God Bless Trump& the USA," in eastern Colorado,

driving through, a couple of days ago.

I saw one, "Jesus Christ Blesses Trump," driving through west Texas, at Thanksgiving.

[hedda_foil]

40. I wonder who paid for Gods seal of approval. It's a helluva powerful reinforcement to true believers

[Alice11111]

42. How can they 2nd guess a billboard? Jesus himself

probably painted it.

(Jesus, I know you have a sense of humor.)

[L. Coyote]

26. Gotta REC this one, for sure.

Happy New Year!

[lindysalsagal]

27. Ok. I'm impressed.

[paleotn]

28. I like it, but....

isn't Republicans for Honest Government an oxymoron?

[cstanleytech]

31. If they really wanted honesty then they should have been vocal about the BS

their own people were pulling when Clinton was President or when Obama was not to mention towards Hillary and the smear campaign their people carried out against John Kerry.
In summary, they can go fuck themselves.

[spooky3]

33. I hope they give an honorary membership to Richard Painter.

an honest Republican from Minnesota

[Ohiogal]

35. Are We Sure this isn't Photo-Shopped?

[world wide wally]

37. Huuuuuuge Mistake

[Brother Buzz]

38. Midterm season is just around the corner, baby

[cstanleytech]

48. And that's what they are trying to protect themselves from or I should say

that to protect there people in the Senate and the House from the consequences of their own actions for passing this tax bill and failing that their goal is to keep enough people in office to keep the Democrats stonewalled with the long-term goal of retaking the Senate and or House.

[Scurrilous]

44. K&R

[MyOwnPeace]

46. I remember passing through Oklahoma in 1974

during the last part of the Watergate mess - saw a YUGE billboard saying "GOD BLESS RICHARD NIXON."

(I forgot to find out who paid for it................... )

[orleans]

50. too late! n/t

[ffr]

55. Republicans need to stand up with their fellow Americans to protest this conspiracy coverup.

We already have an overwhelming amount of evidence for impeachment. Start the ball rolling.

[struggle4progress]

56. "We voted for him! We support him! And now it's time to pretend we don't know him!"

[47of74]

57. Yeah I figure they need to own it. They voted for that SOB. Now own it.
