Martin Sheen Thinks Obama is the Only Adult in the Room

Alongside his son in an interview with The View host Joy Behar, Martin Sheen, better known to some as Jed Bartlett, said liberals that are frustrated with President Obama should not forget what the alternative is:
In response to Sheen’s unabashed adoration of Obama, Behar actually brings some reality into the discussion, pointing to the continued economic distress throughout Obama’s first two years in office, and another uptick in unemployment.
Sheen doesn‘t think Behar’s points are the real problem, instead he blames “corporate America for not sharing their profits.”
In the search for the next Bobby Kennedy, Sheen father and son told Behar that they still haven’t found him, but Obama is the closest thing. Martin adds that Obama is still the only adult in the room.
Martin Sheen is known for his portrayal of fictional Democratic President Jed Bartlett on The West Wing.
Sheen‘s son Emilo’s reaction, or, lack there of, to his father’s comments may come as a surprise considering Emilio took an unexpected jab at Hollywood last Friday, when he stated that he is “embarrassed” by the content he sees in many of the industry’s films. The actor appeared on Laura Ingraham’s radio show to promote his upcoming film, “The Way,“ which Estevez states is a ”celebration of family and faith and community and healing and our humanity.”

Posted on October 18, 2011 at 7:03pmMartin Sheen…hmm-
for some reason, this overrated actor thinks he’s an expert judge of presidential material
just because he played one on TV.
Yeah, if Obama and Sheen were sitting in the room,
Obama probably would be considered the only adult-
Sheen has all the wonderment of a two year old…minus the warm & fuzzy factor.
Everyone says Obama is brilliant-
well, it’s not enough to be just “brilliant”.
If you haven’t the common touch & common sense to shine from all sides
for the common good….“brilliant” might get you an academic degree but not much else.
That’s what great leaders do…shine for their country…not for themselves-
history will cast its own light.
Send Obama & Sheen to Westpoint or even boot camp
and then…tell us how incredibly “brilliant” they are.
I bet Obama has never been to Mt. Vernon to visit the beloved home
and grave of “the Father of our Country” to contemplate greatness, other than his “own”.
“Brillianr” does not guarantee WISDOM-
Give me someone WISE over brilliant anyday.
Obama may always be tagged“ brilliant”
but judging his incessant, arrogant scorn of America,
the Constitution and her citizens….HE will NEVER gain wisdom.
All this “Brilliant” guy had to do
was listen to the American People
and he would have been sashaying into his second term.
It was as easy-as-pie Mr. Sheen
but your “Brilliant Adult” Prez turned out to be a PIOUS, little dope !
Now….tell all us “adults” a

Oh but wait…Ted Kennedy the genius all wanted us to open up our home and share with the illegals…Yeah Right…no way. Just like that Socialist to hell with your healthcare ..give us all your property and cash bill…they just want the people to share the love while they aren’t affected at all.

Posted on October 18, 2011 at 7:40pmMartin, I, for one, think you are 100% right, but you’re timing is off just a little. (like your acting) Very soon, Obama will literally be “the only adult in the room” when everyone abandons him, including Moochelle. The girls will even take Bo. Maybe you two can bunk up together someday in a communist country somewhere…..(NOT HERE). It’s where you both belong.

Posted on October 18, 2011 at 8:16pmMartin Sheen is a FAT hypocrite.
He publicly claims that his “Catholic” faith is vital in his life. Really? Martin defines his Catholicism and the Church must conform to his definition – or they are on the fringe. So Sheen is a huge cheerleader for Obama – the same guy that’s described as the most RADICAL pro-abortion President in history – to the point of allowing the killing of the unborn at the moment of birth and if unsuccessful in that attempt at killing – allow the baby to die, alone.
Sheen is yet another in the long line of pompous AIRHEADS from Hollywood who actually believe that they think on their own beyond cue cards and scripts that are written for them.
Pea-brain.
