| Originally posted by jimH You're at it again Jeff! Ya gotta watch that Leftist Propaganda that you spout. You know there is no more truth in that ad than one claiming that Columbus didn't reach America. Columbus.. such a good Republican.. see the resemblance..  Quote: Never admitting that he had reached a continent previously unknown to Europeans, rather than the East Indies he had set out for, Columbus called the inhabitants of the lands he visited indios (Spanish for "Indians").[7][8][9] Columbus's strained relationship with the Spanish crown and its appointed colonial administrators in America led to his arrest and dismissal as governor of the settlements on the island of Hispaniola in 1500, and later to protracted litigation over the benefits which Columbus and his heirs claimed were owed to them by the crown. Quote: Columbus's refusal to accept that the lands he had visited and claimed for Spain were not part of Asia might explain, in part, why the American continent was named after the Florentine explorer Amerigo Vespucci and not after Columbus.[40] Quote: Columbus was not a scholarly man. Yet he studied these books, made hundreds of marginal notations in them and came out with ideas about the world that were characteristically simple and strong and sometimes wrong, the kind of ideas that the self-educated person gains from independent reading and clings to in defiance of what anyone else tries to tell him.[23] Throughout his life, Columbus also showed a keen interest in the Bible and in Biblical prophecies, and would often quote biblical texts in his letters and logs.  Well never mind on the Republican thing since he really "didn't build that"... Ward of the "state"; Quote: However, to keep Columbus from taking his ideas elsewhere, and perhaps to keep their options open, the Catholic Monarchs gave him an annual allowance of 12,000 maravedis and in 1489 furnished him with a letter ordering all cities and towns under their domain to provide him food and lodging at no cost. Quote: About half of the financing was to come from private Italian investors, whom Columbus had already lined up. Financially broke after the Granada campaign, the monarchs left it to the royal treasurer to shift funds among various royal accounts on behalf of the enterprise. Columbus was to be made "Admiral of the Seas" and would receive a portion of all profits. The terms were unusually generous, but as his son Diego later wrote,[citation needed] the monarchs did not really expect him to return. Quote: In retaliation for the attack on La Navidad, Columbus demanded that each Taino over 14 years of age deliver a hawk's bell full of gold powder every three months or, when this was lacking, twenty-five pounds of spun cotton. If this tribute was not delivered, the Taínos had their hands cut off and were left to bleed to death. Last edited by jeffkrol; 09-04-2012 at 04:37 PM. | |

| Originally posted by jimH I can't see where you've refuted anything that I stated Jeff. Keep trying. So why isn't it Columbus found south, central america and the Caribbean islands..Too many words????? Besides the Vikings and possibly the Scottish and/or European Knights Templar who was the first "Europeans" to "discover" our country?? Does Canada count?? Quote: In 1497, just five years after Christopher Columbus landed in the Caribbean looking for a western route to Asia, a Venetian sailor named John Cabot arrived in Newfoundland on a mission for the British king. Although fairly quickly forgotten, Cabot's journey was later to provide the basis for British claims to North America. It also opened the way to the rich fishing grounds off George's Banks, to which European fishermen, particularly the Portuguese, were soon making regular visits. Quote: Columbus, of course, never saw the mainland United States, but the first explorations of the continental United States were launched from the Spanish possessions that he helped establish. The first of these took place in 1513 when a group of men under Juan Ponce de Leon landed on the Florida coast near the present city of St. Augustine... Sorry, it is exhausting relearning history..........so much propaganda.. so little time.. Chapter 2 - The First Europeans in North America THEN again...... who knows: Stone-age Europeans 'were the first to set foot on North America Quote: ' Stone-age Europeans were the first to set foot on North America, beating American Indians by some 10,000 years, new archaeological evidence suggests. like the handedness thing maybe "leftists" are the ones that are right..

Ya gotta know that everything you see in print isn't always truthful or for that matter "Real". There isn't much Right wing media out there anymore. Ya know, I've got a bridge for sale in New York City, and you can get it cheap. | |
