Polls consistently show that most people's views are not influenced by outspoken celebrities.  I can't wait to see how uber-liberal Aaron Sorkin, executive producer and sole writer of Sheen's TV show 'The Left Wing', is going to try to spin this one.  These people are not anti-war, they are anti-Bush.  If Clinton were prosecuting this war (yeah, right), the silence on the left would be deafening.","author":"Rick","parent_id":25773,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-03-27 22:46:06","modified":"2003-03-27 22:46:06","fileurl":""},{"id":41815,"heading":"ill-informed","article":"Sheen has a very long record of activity in politics, starting in the early 80's when he donated his 6-figure salary for his work on the film "Ghandi" to various charities.
