Well, when I was nine, I played George Washington in a school pageant, so I hereby revoke any such pardon.

Well I can top that. I'm pretending to be King William the Second today and have just given myself a land grant including present day South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia. Tommorrow I will be King Ferdinand or whoever the Spanish guy was and I will give myself Florida.

"Although their actions jeopardises their future, their moral courage in speaking out in this dark time is a powerful inspiration to peace loving non-violent people everywhere," said Sheen

In praising the protestors for their wanton acts of destruction, Sheen pointed out that violence for the sake of peace was not a contradiction in terms. "See, in my world, up is down, and strong is weak. Therefore, it is perfectly permissible to destroy things if you are on the right side. But you're a warmonger if you're not. See how easy it is?"

The obscure actor was scheduled to return to the United States today, where he receives periodic treatment for "reality disorders" at his mansion in Beverly Hills.

Sheen is a fellow Catholic peace activist that condones anything that suits him and codemns anything that doesnt.
He is a Catholic by his words not his deeds.

"Reel Life" does not equal "Real Life". This man is delusional.

Martie--STFU.

Not eloquent nor enlightened, but there are times when a good expletive is soooo satisfying.

In your *18, that was George Burns. If Martin Sheen ever re-did that role, he would be far more self-righteous.

How does this creep hold an Irish passport? I know he is half Irish. Naybe we should deport him and send him there for good. Let them worry about him there.

I bet Sheen likes the IRA killahs too!

Did anyone see those TV comercials he did for the Irish tourist agency a couple of years ago? He spoke with a fake Irish brouge accent! Give me a break!

Sheen has always been on my sh-t list. He loves Castro!

Sheen is such a d-ck. Did Jesuits educate him?

social justice

A term most accurately depicted by Clint Eastwood, in High Plains Drifter.

He's Irish by his own words, too. His own surname is Estevez, he's from Dayton, OH, has a brother still living here, uses Estevez as his name(was at somepoint affilitaed with the local PBS, may still be), and one of "Sheen's" own sons, Emilio, uses the Estevez name.

Martin is a semi-washed up actor on his last legs, and damned sure no president material.

...that was enlightening reading. You nailed it.

I had help from Thomas Hobbes, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and others, who nailed them many years ago. Tragedy is that most people have no clue what tactics these Leftist perverts are using.

Martin Sheen has expressed solidarity with a group of Irish war protesters, charged with causing criminal damages to a US warplane, saying they had "moral courage."

If protestors who disliked Sheen's loyalty to every anti-American dictator in the world trashed his Malibu mansion, I doubt he'd talk about their "moral courage" and grant them a pardon.

Of course pro-America anti-Sheen protestors would know that it was wrong and illegal to commit violence against Sheen's property.

"As a fellow Catholic peace activist I am compelled to support them and their struggle for peace and social justice and their efforts to gain a fair trial,"

Let me sum it up, the Irish hate the British so they don't support British efforts ANYWHERE, it is kind of like Sheen/Estevez not supporting the US (that is why they are anti-war). A good example: WWII, the Irish supported HITLER and the Nazi regime. And before anyone gets their kilts in an uproar, this comes from my friend who was BORN, RAISED and educated in Belfast not a psudo-Irish American (because it is so vogue to be Irish these days).

But thank God that liberals no longer have a stranglehold on television media, and these donkeys are, at last, being held up for ridicule. In past decades, sheen and his ilk were taken seriously, now they are rightfully exposed as jackals.

Every time Martin Sheen the actor opens his big fat mouth, "The West Wing" gets that much closer to cancellation.

**So now 'free speech' isn't enough..... now he's a proponent of "criminal activity" - on an airplane. That's a far cry from non-violence 'criminal' activity (sit-ins, et all) expoused by Martin Luther King and others. Wow..... he's gone overboard now. **

He's beyond delusional.

Martin Sheen needs to seek the services of a surgeon to implant eyeholes next to his belly-button (so he can see out). Martin Sheen has his head up his you-know-what!
