Charlie Sheen Criticizes Obama, in Ebonics, for Focusing on NCAA Bracket over Soldiers

Actor Charlie Sheen sent a message on Twitter Thursday afternoon mocking Barack Obama for working on his NCAA tournament bracket instead of giving attention to U.S. soldiers.

Barry Satera Kenya u won't attend a soldier's funeral uhkros da street that u kild yet u hav time 4 brackets? s a d c http://t.co/KM1in5MPio

The tweet, written to sound like Ebonics and intentionally morphing Obama’s name, makes reference to an unknown soldier’s funeral and links to a screen shot of the President on TV discussing his “Barack-etology” bracket for the college basketball tournament.

Sheen amplified attention to his critique with his permutation of Obama’s name, “Barry Soetero Kenya.” Most of the press has taken this flourish as a nod to the Birther movement–those who believe Obama was not born in Kenya, not the United States.

After a deluge of critical news coverage calling Sheen racist, the actor tweeted a second time, comparing his tweet to a joke Obama made about himself. “I just repeated a joke the president told last week!” Sheen said, posting an InfoWars link defending his Kenya quip. Through a combination of hashtag and emoji, Sheen punctuated the tweet with the slang slogan “Keep It 100,” meaning to be 100% honest.

This is not the first time Sheen has flirted with Birtherism. In 2011, he explicitly said he was skeptical of the President being a natural-born citizen and the legitimacy of the birth certificate Obama released to the public.

Sue Payne: Well, eventually the seedlings will take over the host, and the immigrants will come out of the shadows. And what I got from the meetings was they would be pushing the citizens into the shadows. They would be taking over the country. In fact, one of the members of the task force actually said that we [the task force] would be developing a country within a country.

Sue Payne: Let me tell you what they said. What went on in the call is that the immigration groups, they call themselves the Task Force for New Americans, this is what Obama called them. What the immigrant group said was that they did not want they did not want the American citizens and the president to get the wrong idea of this amnesty, that they are not interested in assimilating, they are interested in navigating. And their new call was: we want to navigate, not assimilate. And what they want to navigate is the benefits in this country. They have no intentions of becoming American citizens because they feel like their home country is somewhere else. But they want the benefits. And, in fact, some of the women on the call said that the citizens of this country need to realize that these immigrant women, their best job is to stay home with their children, and that we should be giving them money and...
