Yes, Columbus Discovered America

Another great article by Dr. David Yeagley. This time the subject is Christopher Columbus. -Ed.

by David Yeagley

Of course Columbus discovered America – from his point of view. The word “discover” doesn’t mean no one else knew about America, or that no one was living here. It just means he landed on shores his society had not landed on before. And, because he landed elsewhere than expected, they said he “discovered” the place. It was new to them. No one of his culture had landed here before.

But it is the greatness of Columbus that liberals cannot abide. Being the pathological protesters they are, no great achiever is allowed recognition. (Liberals laud only empty words of people like Barry Soetoro.) And that which the world has previously considered great and honorable must now be denigrated, demeaned, and condemned. Indeed, damned as evil and wrong. That’s what Jeffrey Kolowith is http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2009/10/11/national/a071548D42.DTL&tsp=1 in Tampa, Florida. They mustn’t like Columbus. He was bad. “He was very, very mean, very bossy,” says Kolowith, poisoning the little children’s minds with disdain, aversion, and hatred for the very elements of character required to achieve anything grand. Self-discipline, group management, unrelenting dedication, these are not to be found in the weak and ‘loving’ liberal. The only thing they’re devoted to is undoing what achievers achieve.

An AP story, http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2009/10/11/national/a071548D42.DTL&tsp=1, indicates Kolowith is determined that children despise those who have accomplished the most significant feats in history.

Author of the article, Christine Amario, has assembled a sordid array of typical, boring anti-American brainwashers. The only one distinguished among them is in fact Mr. Kolowith – and only because he’s taken the anti-Western cause to the youngest children in the American public school system: the five-year olds.
