"Bamboozle" originally a slang or cant word, perhaps Scottish from bombaze: "perplex," or Fr. embabuiner: "to make a fool (baboon) of" (Online Etymology Dictionary); "to deceive or get the better of (someone) by trickery, flattery, or the like; hoodwink; to practice trickery or deception (Random House Dictionary). This Blog is one citizen's attempt to speak forthrightly and to question those who would bombastically deceive and mislead the public.

WELCOME!  I invite you to explore this Progressive BLOG initiated in 2010.  Become a regular follower or just come back as often as you can.

Thousands from the USA and at least ten foreign countries have been viewers of this Blog just like you.  It is time we ALL learn to speak up, to speak out, to challenge, and to protest because ACTIVISTS are the backbone of this great nation and those leaders who seek to BAMBOOZLE US or ROB US of our power must be told that they are REPRESENTATIVES -- neither dictators nor a privileged class -- and that they must listen to us, seek our counsel, and act on OUR BEHALF, not their OWN.  

SPEAK TRUTH to POWER, CAUSE GOOD TROUBLE, and DEFEND DEMOCRACY!

PRACTICE BEING a CRITICAL THINKER, a RESPONSIBLE FREEDOM FIGHTER, and a CARETAKER of EQUAL RIGHTS!  

CITIZENSHIP is NOT a SPECTATOR SPORT and PATRIOTISM is NOT unquestioning OBEDIENCE to what we are told is best for us.

DON'T BE BAMBOOZLED!
