Martin Sheen Tapes Mouth Shut in Protest Wed Mar 26,10:09 PM ET

LOS ANGELES - Actor Martin Sheen (news) covered his mouth with a piece of duct tape that said "peace," then led about 60 protesters in a prayer vigil Wednesday.

Sheen, star of the NBC series "West Wing," carried a huge painted cross during the protest. He did not speak but the Rev. Michael Kennedy of Delores Mission Catholic Church in East Los Angeles read a statement from him.

"Nationalism and militarism have become the gods of our idolatry at the expense of our humanity," Sheen wrote."By some demented form of logic the men, women and children of Iraq are relegated to 'collateral damage' as the dogs of war slouch toward Baghdad."

It's called Liberation, Martin.

Perhaps we've not heard from him because he never got the tape off.

They dare not say what they really think, and if they say *anything* else on the events of today, it only underscores the fact that Bush was RIGHT. Therefore, they choose to say nothing--and pretend the liberation of millions of people from a butcher is only a minor event.

These people have no shame, nor class.

FACES OF FREEDOM!

The little girl in the red dress is someone very close and dear to me. Their faces are so similar that I can't stop my tears. G-D bless the USA!

Jessica Lynch and the brave men who saved her = great American heroes.

Martin Sheen = flush it down the toilet bowl.

Hey, Martin:

--Winston Churchill

Do you know who Winston Churchill was??? It was on the Dayton College entrance exam.
