I know that they exist, I know that they believe earnestly that they stand for the protection of the Constitution and freedom for the people. Chris Mathews [Hardball] next Thursday will be discussing the extreme right of the Tea Party. Is this organization too militant for the grass roots Tea Party, is this movement something ordinary people would want to get involved with.......
We are proud to announce that Oath Keepers will be a co-sponsor for the March On DC September 11, 2010. Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes is also on the planning board for the march and will speak at the event. This march is expected to draw well over a million patriotic Americans of all parties, from all parts of this nation, gathered together to defend our Constitution and to honor those who have given their all for liberty. Oath Keepers is proud to take part in this non-partisan event. As the official press release says “This year we simply refuse to provide a platform for anyone who wishes to bash the other party. Both [major] parties must accept responsibility for the state of our union.” Amen.
During the march, Oath Keepers will conduct a massive oath ceremony where those who have sworn an oath to defend the Constitution can renew that oath, and those citizens who have not yet sworn the oath can do so for the first time, standing shoulder to shoulder on the national mall with military, police, fire-fighters, veterans, and their fellow citizens from all walks of life. We will then demand that our elected public servants HONOR THEIR OATH TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, making it clear that if they don’t we will kick them out of our house in November! As our numbers grow, we urge ALL Oath Keepers to attend this historic March On DC and let the world know that further violation of our Constitution by politicians will not be tolerated…or in our own words “NOT ON OUR WATCH!!”

PRESS RELEASE
The September 2010 March On DC
Washington, DC. On January 29, 2010 a national board of advisors, consisting of members from some of the country’s largest independent grassroots conservative minded organizations participated in a roundtable conference to plan for the September 2010 events to be held on Capitol Hill, Washington DC.
Despite rumors and speculation concerning fragmentation within the conservative movement, many national leaders have united for a common cause. While few can logically deny that the September 12th 2009 “Taxpayers March on DC” was a huge success, organizers for the 2010 event are redesigning the format, planning early and this year they promise to deliver a message to Washington DC that both houses of Congress and the Administration, Democrat, Republican or Independent, will not be able to ignore.
In a statement released by one board member on Saturday, January 30th, the message was pretty clear, “We the people are taking our country back, one seat at a time. Republicans, Democrats and Independents will stand united to make one very clear statement. “Change your ways or get out of our house.” If our representatives choose to continue to conduct business as usual, we the people will conduct our business. Working tirelessly to see they are voted out of office in November”.
A spokesman for the group stated that “With the November 2nd elections just 7 weeks from the September 2010 event, the timing could not be better. Once again Americans from every corner of the nation will unite on Capitol Hill for a nonpartisan march and rally. This year there will be no doubt this is a “We the People, For the People, By the People” event. Not one dime will be accepted from corporate sponsors, PAC’s, political parties or political organizations. All of our board members have a complete understanding that they will not receive any remuneration for their services.”
“The speakers for the 2010 event will consist primarily of everyday American citizens without regard to their political party. The message will be one of Unity, Government Reform, the Constitution as well as the upcoming November elections. All speakers will have to be approved by the board with a majority vote and no one will be paid to speak or appear. This year we simply refuse to provide a platform for anyone who wishes to bash the other party. Both parties must accept responsibility for the state of our union”.
“Our intent is to have representation from every state and all will be involved in the decision making process. Our focus is not on any particular groups or organizations but rather on individual leadership abilities, unity and cooperation. We will welcome the participation of all of the November Candidates and will be providing them with a unique opportunity to speak directly to their constituents at pre-determined locations throughout Washington DC.”
The 2010 Event will take place from the 9th – 12th of September. The “official” web site for the event will be located at www.MARCHONDC.org. We will be working very closely with all of the media this year and welcome their presence. The official name of the “Event” will be released in the next press release.
