Martin Sheen Mind Meld


Yesterday, I was on my little rampage about the drug laws (okay, pot especially). Today, I'm reading the news because, yes Sunday is the best day to do it. Of course, it is just not the same as getting lost in the Sunday paper (oh, the New York Times Magazine after reading the Providence Journal and the front section of the NY Times - heaven indeed!), but I am in Florida, so these minor pleasures I can no longer have satiated.

What did I just stumble upon, my random blog reader? Well, apparently according to the AP, Martin Sheen was just in Congress this week to ask for money for drug courts and treatment instead of jail as a drug court and the subsequent treatment saved one of his friends. He appeared this morning on George Stephanopoulos on ABC's "This Week" about his friend and his appearance in Washington. I have to give Martin a big thumbs up for going to Congress and telling them what works.

If you would like to read the AP story, you can find it here.

When I'm board I'll click next blog to gauge what's going on in the blogosphere.
Gee, you don't support a measure that keeps our country safe and then you invoke a nut case like Martin Sheen. Let me guess, Michael Moore is one of you heroes too?
Everyone is entitled to their opinion but imo you come from the shallow end of the gene pool.

brad, you're too much of a coward to show your profile. You do not spell "bored" correctly. I will be the judge of which measures keep our country safe, thank you very much. And you keep on guessing who my heroes are, bud. You do not mention the content of the post at all, so just what the heck are you bothering for? Just trolling obviously.

I'm leaving your comment up because I'm not afraid of bullies.
