I remember thinking during the 2000 election that I found the West Wing so much more engaging than I did any of the real candidates.
I'm kind of embarrassed about that but, alas, it was true. But 2004, I think I was over it.
Martin Sheen is in a category of people that I have a complex mix of emotion about it. I feel a varying blend of pity, confusion, admiration, and embarrassment.
Some people come by their political zaniness more authentically than others, and I think Martin Sheen’s is an outgrowth of taking social justice Catholic teaching very much to heart. Other celebrities pretty deliberately seem to turn political advocacy into public relations currency, but I don’t think that’s where it’s at with Sheen.
