Hatred (or silence) toward Columbus is a bow towards Native Americans.
Latino culture is heavily Native American and only marginally derived from the culture of Spain.

The fact that Latino Culture month excludes discussion of the European who introduced Western Civilization to the stone age people living in the New World does not surprise me -- though it does sadden me.

How long has it been?

You’ve had your fifteen minutes of fame, Ward, now suck it up and move on. We know you’re a liberal but at least try to act like a man.

You bore us. Go away.

Columbus and the Spanish Conquistadors should be recognized as saviors for being instrumental in stopping the holocaust the Aztecs were inflicting on the peoples of Mexico.

Le lo están haciendo un agujero del infierno del país del tercero-mundo. Estamos casi sin remedio. Éstas son la gente que piensa que son más sabios que nuestros fundadores. Es una farsa y una tragedia. Y nuestros políticos lo están dejando suceder para su propia ventaja. Sin vergüenzas.

A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.

Columbus was Jewish. His voyage was financed by Jews, and only sanctioned by the Catholic Monarchy who at the time were aggressively and foolishly ridding themselves of the Jewish plague, while at the same time taking financial and property advantage of Jewish interests. We all know what happened to Spain as a result of the easy wealth pickings from the Americas. “The Wealth of Nations”!

Spain failed. Big Time. They kicked out the Jews, got easy-picking wealth, and look how things turned out for them. Sort of like a Welfare Queen. Much better to be “discovered” by the English, as things go, discovery-wise. England leaves a happy legacy of law to it’s ex-colonial countries. The more old school English an ex-colony keeps its law, work-ethic and educational system, the better things go for it.

What is the keystone of old-school English law work-ethic and educational system? — Old-school Jewish law and custom!

Spain tossed both. The English Channel wrote that coda.
