| by Marlene Lunsman I do not believe that our Higher Power....by whatever name you call Him...The Creator...the Highest Power in the Universe...The Great Spirit...Maybe you Call Him Allah... maybe you call Him another name......but He does not endorse war that kills children....The faction of Muslims that are callling for a "Holy War" against the U.S. were calling for this war and have been calling for it for a long time now....I hate the fact that we are at war...for whatever reason....and that children are being killed....children of God, no matter what age....All the name callling, finger pointing...judging and projected hatred in the world are not fruits of the loving spirit of God... they spring from another source....dark and evil....We need to forgive one another...and pray for our president ...we may not like him...or his policys but if he is going to hold this office...he needs our prayers....we need to pray for our enemies...and pray for love and understanding in this war weary old world...I believe in our country...under God...I believe you have the right to your opinion....I believe that God knows our hearts....and He alone is the One who does......I pity Saddam when he meets his maker....and is asked what can you do with your life that you can show me.....the terrorists who kill innocent people in the name of God will have to answer to that same God.....Sincerely, Marlene Lunsman Comment on this... | ||||||||||||||

| by Robert Poudrier Hey Ramon(aka Martin Sheen)I wish you guys and girls in Make Believe Land would get your ACTS together.Every time the Democrats tell you to go out and do their bidding you people run out into the street like pack of rabid dogs.You're not against the war or you would have spoken out against the previous criminals attacks against Iraq and Kosovo.You knew he was just trying to save his skin from being found guilty of committing PERJURY and needed a diversion.Not one of you made a peep,not even that mad dog Alec Baldwin or the Schnozz(Streisand)who believes having a high school diploma gives her the right to make national policy.(LOL).Like or not George Bush won every recount and was not appointed president as you like insist.If you want to talk about voting discrepancies tell them about the Democrats paying the homeless in Milwaukee to go to the polls and vote Democrat and the students at Marquette being given extra ballots and told to vote Dem.Or maybe how that new arm of the Dem party,the NAACP going around the South and buyin Dem.votes for $3 apiece.When you clear all this up come back and we'll talk.

| by Mark Scanlon This is a free country. Mr Sheen has a right to his opinion. The rest of the great unwashed also have a right to an opinion and perhaps a comment. We have this right because of brave people throughout history who have fought to oppose opression. Mr Sheen stands against brave Americans who give their lives for the freedom of the Iraqi people. They fight to keep foreign hostiles from American soil. He stands with a barbiarian who has killed thousands of his own people and opressed a generation of his countrymen. In seeking a superior position, a moral highground, a position better than the average Joe, Mr. Sheen has found a place in humanities sewer. Mark B. Scanlon Comment on this... |

| by Mandy I utterly commend and support Martin Sheen and his speaking out against the war. All of you who say that we should support our sountry no matter what they do are no better than Saddam's military who support his unjust killings. OUR FREEDOMS ARE NOT AT STAKE IN THIS WAR. The soldiers, who are very courageous and we are lucky to have them willing to die for this country, are not defending our freedoms! Free speech in this country is threatened by all of you who write in saying that Martin should support the US at all costs. The Bush administration and the Patriot Act are taking away more rights of the American citizens than Saddam ever threatened to take (which is none). This war is not connected to September 11, there is no connection between the two! The weapons that we are claiming Iraq has would, if they exist, be bought from us. In the Iraq-Iran war of the 1980s, the US supported the use of chemical weapons by Iraq against the Iranian people (from 1983 to 1988 13,000 chemical bombs were dropped on Iran WITH US HELP AND SUPPORT. It is important that all of those who claim we should value our freedoms in this country question the lies the media is feeding the public. You can disagree with my views, but check out in depth what ids going on in the world from other lips than those of our president. Oppose the patriot act which is only the first step of many to come that takes away the same rights you say we are abusing. Inform yourself on the measures that have been taken by the Bush regime to supress any media reporters stationed in Iraq, all reporters wishing to be stationed in this area must sign "Ground Rules" agreeing that the US defense department has the right to FILTER AND CUT all material that is then broadcasted or sent to the American population. Does this sound like a free exchange of information to you? Where are the rights that these soldiers are supposedly preserving for me, because they seem to have disappeared the minute the country started this war to preserve them. Supporting our country no matter what and rallying around the president with no knowledge or concern for the true facts of the present situation encourages the violation of le liberties I am supposed to be enjoying because of this war. Unite through knowledge. We do not wish the death of anyone, including those of our troops. Thank you Martin for fighting to preserve my rights and freedom! Mandy Comment on this... | ||||

| by Lee Anne Farrington Martin Sheen, I'm so ashamed of you and 95% of Hollywood. The comment that was made today at the prayer vigil you held, was so insulting towards our troops, our President and the american people. For those of you who do not know about this comment here it is ("By some demented form of logic the men, women and children of Iraq are relegated to 'collateral damage' as the dogs of war slouch toward Baghdad." ) Those troops which you call "dogs of war" are over there fighting for the very things we believe in and our freedom. The right to freedom of speech is one of the things those "Dogs" are fighting for. The comments you make are so hurtful to the american people, our troops, military dependents and our children, do you not think before you speak. Our President and military are trying their very best to not harm innocent Iraqi civilians and give freedom to the innocent Iraqi civilians who are wanting our help. Noone likes war Martin, but as a military spouse, whose husband is serving in the US Navy to protect the likes of you am deeply sadden and disgusted by the comments you make. I nor any of my friends will ever watch a show you are attached to in any way, wether it be acting, directing, producing ect. To think that my husband is serving this nation and my father served this nation to protect people like you is very hurtful. You have done great damage to the hearts of many americans.

| by Lawson, David I would you to know Mr. Martin Sheen that my child and my nephews are defending you right to speak out about you beliefs. I feel that everyone had the right to say what they have on their minds, but first they have to understand what they say. I can tell you from a former servicemen that I did not have to fight during the time I served. I can tell you that my father and father-in-law did and they tell me that the most thing that upset them the most was the anti- war protest. I was told that at the time they were fighting the only thing on their mind was keeping from getting killed and keep their buddy beside them from getting killed. I guess you can see that they fought to live at the time and the rest of us benifit from their willingness to stand the wall. I ask you what you protest. I can tell you if the problem is the American soldier my child wants you to know, please do not. " I choose to serve no one made me and I do that with pride and if I have to pay the price then I hope that the people of the U.S. will remember when they lay down in their warm bed to sleep in peace". I was told also by my child that if "I do not come home please go on knowing that I stood for what you taught me and do not run from the fight and gave it my all for my country". I 'll close with that Mr. Sheen the people who have fought and are fighting say everything that needs to be said and they truly understand . see you and myself can not we have not stood that wall, we just get to continue to be free and say what we want, when we want. I quess you understand that part well enough. Good day.............. Comment on this... |

| by TC I am very dissapointed in the position Mr. Sheen has taken. A dictator that murders his own people through starving, and torture is not the type of person that anyone should be protesting to keep in power. What ever your feelings about war, we have learned the lesson of non-action (Sept 11th). I have seen alot of demonstrations against war but no real alternative to take care of this problem that has not been able to be solved diplomatically in over 12 years. If Mr. Sheen is so unhappy with the US policies and leadership, please be our guest to move to Iraq. It is interesting for someone who doesn't even stay true to his given name, to throw stones at the integrity of another. The president stays true to his plans even in the face difficult situations, because he is not fake, and not an actor, but he is a leader and our commader and chief. Mr Sheen you are entitled to your opinion, but the public is entitled to denounce your opinion and refuse to support your career in the future. Comment on this... |

| by Lulu well im totally disappointed since martin sheen made his speech against our president and America. The west wing use to be one of our favorite shows and martin one of our favorite actors, but after his tv statement about the war it changed everything. My friends, and family and of course my relatives have decided not to watch west wing again until they put another actor in as president. One that has respect for our president and country. we are not for war either, but we still have respect for what has to be done, and our president. There are alot of actors and singers that we just don't want anything to do with anymore after there comments about our country and president. It's ashame because most of them were good at what they did. Were just totally disappointed in them all. They need to go to iraq and live as civilians and be treated like they are and then say sadam is okay. God forbid. May god be with these stars and singers. They need him. Comment on this... |
