I believe I may have to elevate my opinion of Mr. Sheen somewhat...

...once I recover from the shock!

There is hope for my son.

I may not agree with all of Mr. Sheen's views, but on these issues of abortion and euthanasia, he's walking with the angels. He's come a long way since 1974:

I am pleasantly surprised. I always enjoyed Sheen’s acting, if not his politics.

I wish him the best in straightening out his drug-crazed son.

NO NO NO a thousand times no. Sheen is still a total libtard Obama supporting jackass, and I totally disagree with him (and some of you) on the assisted suicide issue. Talk to someone suffering from ALS or certain other HORRIBLE diseases. They have every right to decide when they’re done suffering/fighting. Thanks to idiots like Sheen thinking they have a right to make decisions for others, my dad had to take a much less dignified path to end his own suffering. To make matters even worse, he knew he couldn’t tell any of us, so no time for goodbyes.
Shame on everyone out there who assumes the right to decide personal issues for others, whether it’s time to die or whether or not we can salt our food. I hope you never face anything as horrible as ALS, but it’s easy to judge when it’s not YOU losing more of your independence each day, unable to swallow food, or take a decent breath of air. /end rant

He may be a Hollywood lib but he is a good man when no one is watching. I know this first hand when he helped me in private and wanted nothing in return. I never watched his show but he is a good person in private.

Martin Sheen's pro life???? Yikes! I'm speechless.

[MomofMarine]

I applaud his pro-life stance. I never would have guessed since he continues to support Democrats who are almost 100% pro-abortion. I will never understand how anyone can profess to be a Catholic yet consistently vote for and support pro-abortion candidates! Can someone please explain this to me?

Wow. This was not at all the story I expected from reading the headline.

Sometimes a prominent liberal advocate of a conservative position can do much good. Think, for example, of the way the NRA has successfully used guns as a wedge issue with rural Democrats to split the Democratic Party and win victories for the Second Amendment. Abortion seems to be a nastier issue for liberals and there are a lot fewer liberal supporters of pro-life causes, but let's be glad for advocates of truth in strange places.
