“What happened in D.C. over the weekend marked a
political watershed. But what now? What’s next?
Here’s my plan.” –Steve

The citizen revolt against Obama-led big government now has a face…

It’s the sea of grassroots Americans who peaceably marched on our
nation’s capital this past weekend. I’m thrilled that thousands
(perhaps tens of thousands) of Grassfire and ResistNet members
were on hand. And despite efforts by the liberal media to
downplay the crowd, one thing is clear…

The grassroots, tea-party resistance is massive, it is
growing, it has momentum and it is changing the
political landscape!

But the key question facing us right now is NOT arguing with the
liberals over how many people attended…

The real question of the day is this…

What do we do now?

During Grassfire’s Grassroots Training session Friday before the
march, we launched a campaign that I believe answers that question,
and can help move the patriotic, tea-party resistance to the next
level…

I can sum it up in three words…

…FLIP THIS HOUSE!

The time is NOW to translate our political resistance into
action–stimulating change that disrupts and alters the political
landscape. Simply put, we must FLIP THIS HOUSE in 2010!

Marietta, one of our team members came to us with the idea and
it immediately resonated with me.

I can tell you that at our training session, Grassfire
and ResistNet team members caught the vision immediately–
responding loudly and strongly as soon as we put “Flip
This House 2010″ on the large video screens!

Flip This House 2010 is a non-partisan campaign designed
to restore the ideals of liberty and limited government
to political authority. And the next chance to do that
is in 2010… when we ban together to Flip This House!

During our training session, I outlined the four FLIP Principles
and the four aspects of the FLIP Platform that we believe can
unite the vast majority of the American people to challenge the
rising tide of statism and big government.

Marietta, I want you to review the FLIP Principles and the
FLIP Platform by going here:

++ Stirring a Waking Nation…

The first stage of our Flip This House initiative is to engage
hundreds of thousands–perhaps even millions of Americans in the
goal of “Flip This House 2010.”

Then, from that base, we can hold candidates accountable–
encouraging men and women of principle to seek office
to uphold these principles.

The Taxpayer March on D.C. was historic. And thanks to you,
Grassfire played a key role…

++You helped us reach our goal of delivering more than
500,000 petitions to Congress on the eve of the March…

++Dozens of Grassfire team members helped personally
deliver 505,000 petitions, and reaching every Senator…

++Grassfire and ResistNet hosted a two-hour Grassroots
Training session followed by a “meet-and-greet” reception
that attracted nearly 1,000 people…

++Grassfire/ResistNet served as one of the Platinum
Sponsors of the historic 9/12 march…

Now, we must move forward boldly. I believe “Flip This House 2010″
can help us do just that.

and Platform, listen to the launch event and more:

Thanks for the stand you are taking to RESTORE and REBUILD our
nation to greatness!

I just wanted to send a quick note of thanks to all of you for working so hard to make the 9-12 March on Washington a big success! We here at FreedomWorks were blown away by the turnout, the energy and the patience you all displayed. Looking out across the west lawn of the capitol, down Pennsylvania Avenue and the Mall, was something I will never forget. You all just kept coming from Freedom Plaza, from Union Station and from the Mall to join the crowd already gathered at the capitol.

We were able to bring together hundreds of thousands of patriotic Americans in one place, at one time, with one voice. Our message was “Don’t Tread on Me!” We were heard loud and clear on Saturday, and the folks on Capitol Hill were talking about you all, yesterday and today. They couldn’t believe the size of the crowd, nor the excitement and energy that filled the west front of the capitol. I had one of our allies on the Hill email hundreds of staffers the pictures and videos from the protest.

And I told them all that if their bosses vote the right way going forward, you will know it and appreciate it. But I told them that if their bosses vote the wrong way, you will know it and make them feel the heat. I explained to the staffers that this was a real, growing movement for liberty in America, and that no one party, no one organization and no one person was in charge of it. This is a grassroots movement that will continue to roll like a tidal wave across the country, and it cannot be stopped.

Keep up the great work out there, whether you are in Santa Monica, Denver, Des Moines, Omaha or Philadelphia. If you continue to build your organizations at the local level, and connect with others around you, together we can build “a force more powerful” that will rival any mass social movement in American history. God bless each one of you for your sacrifices to come to Washington on that historic day. This will be remembered as the day We The People saved our republic.
