In a disgusting world where the ‘big people’ have to put down the ‘little people’ with condescending messages to be ate up by the socially active tabloids. Mr. Sheen is a breath of fresh air. Well, maybe not fresh but at least honest.

That’s one of my favorite songs.

No matter how dislikable Sheen may be, at least he has a bit of a backbone…more than could be said for the coelenterates permeating our “society”.

Ilana,
I’m sorry to double post but I feel the need to clarify. When I said that Israel is a middle ground I am simply recognizing that Israelis are drawn from Jews of various descents. Israelis have the engineering skills of the Germans with the resilience of the Russians and the political savvy of Anglo-Saxons. So I would categorize Israel as part of The West but Israel has at least one foot in the old world of Eastern Europe. (This is one of the many reasons why I love Israel!)
As far as conspiracy theories go, far too many of them are rehashings of old antisemitic propaganda that date back to the Czarist era and the Protocols of The Elders of Zion. I’ve heard Charlie Sheer and his buddy Alex Jones talk about “dancing Israelis” in New York after 9-11. This is completely fabricated horse-feces. It was so well fabricated that it is republished so widely that is accepted as fact among 9-11 “truthers” like Sheen. It feeds into the absurd notion that Jews sew the seeds of international conflict, which is an absurd but widely repeated notion especially in the Arab world and unfortunately in Europe as well today.

"Anyone with anti-establishment beliefs are automatically lunatics?" The Tuscon shooter shot and killed a 9 year old girl. I don't care if people consider him crazy, but he is evil, plain and simple. As far as 9-11 conspiracies go, it's hard to put any crime past the government these days but 9-11 was perpetrated by Islamic radicals and celebrated across the Islamic world. Pretending that the government did it distracts from the fact that The West, Orthodox Christendom, and Israel (which is a strange and beautiful middle ground between the two aforementioned groups) faces an existential threat from the Islamic world. Sheen and his fellow nutcases try to blame Mossad for the crimes of our civilizational enemies. It's blood libel as far as I'm concerned. But, as far as cocaine and prostitutes go... while I frown on both I recognize his right to indulge and wish the government would as well!

From my viewing of Charlie Sheen’s antics, I think he over-indulges in anything that hits his fancy, and since he can well afford it, and still has his health, he will continue to do so until it affects him adversely. He seems to be ranting at times, but he looks like he never sleeps, and being terribly promiscuous, no wonder. He strikes me as a very selfish person, but he’s harming no one else I can see; it’s his right to live the way he wishes to as long as it doesn’t infringe on anyone else’s. This is America after all, Life Liberty and The Persuit of Happiness (even if you get an STD doing it)!

Excellent! Perhaps you could plug the man who pioneered Psychiatry skepticism – Dr. Thomas Szasz. When I take over as ruler of the world, I will abolish all Psychiatric departments and make Szasz essential reading for all medical students.

Although I have seen only a few television sound-bites of the recent Charlie Sheen interviews, I would guess that the Establishment intention is to completely discredit Sheen by portraying him as a lunatic, and thus discredit his political beliefs, including presumably his belief that the US Government was the source of the 9-11 terror attacks, which 9-11 conspiracy happens to be about the only thing that I agree about with Charlie Sheen, although the establishment news media seems to be in its usual 9-11 conspiracy coverup mode, similar to the coverup about Tucson shooter Jared’s belief about the 9-11 Government conspiracy, although again Jared is portrayed in the media as a lunatic. Is there a pattern here? Anyone with anti-establishment beliefs are automatically lunatics? Similar to the lying establishment propaganda that all political assassins are lone-nuts, despite overwhelming evidence of Government conspiracy in some cases, such as the assassination of President Kennedy, as the most obvious, although other US political assassination cases also suggest conspiracy.

Addiction, behavior, biology… whatever… this whole thing was really all about money. He wanted out of his contract so he could renegotiate. And, he didn’t care if he ever made another episode of 2.5men if things went badly. My guess is he’s got plenty of money, he’s tired of doing what everyone tells him to do, and he knows everythings going to shit – RSN.

GOOD FOR HIM. Sigma’s Unite! 🙂

The guy is a dingbat. The people he is dealing with are dingbats. Anybody who actually watches their programs are at least apprentice dingbats. As Bugs Bunny would say “What a bunch of maroons”. (Here I am calling Charlie Sheen a dingbat and quoting Bugs Bunny at the same time.)

I don’t find Charlie Sheen to be a role model, but I admit that next to Frasier, 2 and a Half Men is my favourite sitcom of all time.
