Charlie Sheen, The Argument Against the New Libertarianism?

For a while now, Reagan Conservatives have had to listen to Liberals, so-called Fiscal Conservatives, and those who identify themselves as Libertarians chide us about our supposed close-minded ignorance concerning excessive drinking, pot smoking, and recreational use of other illegal substances and their harmful effect on not only the user, but on those around him.  

The latest in a number of recent Hollywood celebrity implosions just blew the harmless argument completely out of the water.

The walking/talking train wreck known as Charlie Sheen made national headlines yesterday as he launched another drug-addled attack against the hand that feeds him, his bosses at CBS Television and Warner Brothers.

The reason? His bosses decided that they had put up with enough of his garbage and cancelled production of the season of his hit comedy Two and a Half Men.

Sheen, who is physically somewhere in the Bahamas and mentally in a galaxy far, far away, called into the radio show Loose Cannons and had a temper tantrum concerning his treatment by his bosses. He called them “clowns” – for

…getting up in my grill, telling me how to live my personal life. 

I kept saying back off, back off – and they wouldn’t. I kept asking for that respect and I couldn’t get it.

These guys (producers Chuck Lorre and Lee Aronsohn) are just a couple AA Nazis and really just blunt hypocrites.

According to Sheen, his relationship with CBS Corp. president and CEO Leslie Moonves is over. Sheen said Moonves visited him at home and asked him to seek treatment:

He rolled into my house and he made a man-to-man request, and I honored it. And I asked for a couple of things, and he’s not honoring that. We’re pretty much done … unless he’s got a really good excuse for a guy who lives in the middle of the truth.

The self-destructive Sheen said that the show set

…has been a toxic environment for eight years. I felt like an unwelcome relative, being given cold coffee at 9 o’ clock every night. I just got tired of it, of people not knowing the truth.

The child-like Sheen said if season nine happens, he would do it

…but not with the turds who are currently in place. It’s impossible. Can you imagine gong back into the sludge-pit with those knuckleheads at this point? It would go bad quickly.

When asked if he had any message for the television show’s crew, Sheen replied:

I say, be patient, yet focused. We are at war and there are ways to deal with these clowns and take all their money.

Defeat is not an option. They picked a fight with the wrong guy… they are in absolute breach. I expressed an opinion and I got the First Amendment behind me….

I put $5 bill in the studio’s pocket, I put half-a-bill in Chuck’s pocket, and this is the thanks I get?

According to the addict, he also claimed he was talking to HBO about doing a show. He said the show would be

…something beyond this drivel, this pukefest that everyone worships. I’m like, ‘Wow, that was another bad joke.’

HBO denies this, but remember, they hired Bill Maher.

In conclusion, Sheen told his supporters (both of them) to

…find the most comfortable furniture in the house, sit in it, open a beer and watch the show because it’s about to get really gnarly.

About to?  Have you looked in the mirror lately, Charlie?

 Sheen was raised as a spoiled Hollywood brat by his dad, Martin Sheen, a brilliant actor, but a raging left-wing activist, who spit on American soldiers during anti-war protests.

Martin Sheen recently made a ludicrous comparison to Sky News, saying:

He’s an extraordinary man. You know, if he had cancer, how would we treat him? The disease of addiction is a form of cancer and you have to have an equal measure of concern and love and lift them up and so that’s what we do for him.

You realize we’re not all on the same journey all the time. We have to love that much more. We have to be that much more present.

Yes, Martin, being addicted is like having a disease.  Except, I’ve never heard about a Cancer patient driving their car recklessly and killing innocent people because of their disease.

That personal responsibility thing is a pain, isn’t it?
