Newest member of the Liberal Advertising Network

Today is a big day for this web site.  Just a few hours ago, Chris Bowers of the well-known progressive blog MyDD finalized the entry of The Blue State blog into the Liberal Advertising Network.  This is important because it allows me to join the list of nearly 100 other blogs -- such as Daily Kos, Crooks and Liars, Firedoglake, Americablog and others -- that contribute progressive ideas and momentum on a daily basis in an effort to use grassroots activist democracy to push back against the established elite that have a foothold on sources of power in Washington.

My goal with this blog is to help strengthen the progressive infrastructure in any way that I can.  Conservatives have their noise machine in the television and radio industries and in corporate America.  It is essential that progressives put all their energy behind utilizing the blogosphere.  Blogs are a great resource for bringing concerned citizens together to discuss, organize and rally for non-reactionary, solution-based ideas that can strengthen this country for future generations.

Between now and November, I will contribute my energy and ideas into helping better establish the netroots as a mainstream demographic of informed and involved taxpayers that demand accountability, transparency and honesty from the highest levels of power.

So thanks for stopping by.  Come back often.  Bookmark it.  Tell your friends.  And link to it if you have a blog!  There's about two months until election day, and we have a lot to accomplish.
