If you live in Seattle you may be able to get this station, if you can not then you can listen live online or even listen to the archived shows. Tacoma and Lakewood areas have great coverage (including McChord AFB and Fort Lewis).
This is not a big station. They have a mix of progressive, liberal, left, buisness, and even con shows.
It would help out a lot if many of you who live in this area or even those of you who do not would listen and promote the show I have linked below and this station so that we can make it grow and hopefully add more local progressive shows.

How many of you have heard of the Eat The View website?
Well it is a website dedicated growing the awareness and acceptance of Organic Gardening and Farming by asking... well pushing.. President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama to turn part of the White House lawn into an Organic Garden.
From the Eat The View website:
In Memory of "Toot" - Barack Obama's Grandmother.

and Gentlemen.
I am so happy that people, politicians and the media are finally starting to call out lies for what they are ... LIES!
It seems like the ladies on the view have also had it with the LIES of the republicans and mccain/palin.

John McCain was on The View today and it was an awful roasting. He was pinned up and down the couch.
The Surge Is Working
Submitted by kevin22262 on September 5, 2008 - 10:27pm.
Barack Obama | Democrats | escalation | Iraq | Joe Biden | John McCain | Sarah Palin | Surge | war
Let's just stop for a moment and parrot what mccain, palin and the repubs say - "the surge is working" (actually it should be called the escalation).
Now why don't the Democrats and Obama/Biden try responding with something like this...
"Ok, let's say that the surge or escalation is working.
Is the surge working because al-sadr decided he wanted to be an ayotollah, told his army to stand down and took off to Iran for training and schooling?
Is the surge working because we are paying off militant groups to stand down?

The following is Hillary Clinton's intial statement regarding the conventions and mccain/plain.
"The two party conventions showcased vastly different directions for our country. Senator Obama and Senator Biden offered the new ideas and positive change America needs and deserves after eight years of failed Republican leadership. Senator McCain and Governor Palin do not," Clinton said.
Thank You Repubs and Sarah Palin!
