Charlie Sheen slammed the recent remarks of Phil Robertson about homosexuality, commenting on Twitpic about the recent Duck Dynasty patriarch’s remarks. Robertson’s remarks will be featured in the upcoming January issue of GQ magazine. Among other remarks, Robertson, 67, equated homosexuality to bestiality. Sheen, who has many friends and acquaintances who are homosexual, roundly denounced Robertson’s anti-gay comments with a few choice words of his own.
Charlie Sheen who starred in Two and a half Men and currently stars in Anger Management, apparently considered Phil Robertson’s remarks to be non-winning ones.
Sheen wrote his reply to Robertson’s supposedly biblical-based anti-gay remarks Saturday on Twitpic. Sheen said, among many other things, that the Duck Dynasty star was a “shower dodger” and that he was “the only surviving brain donor I’ve ever known.” Charlie Sheen added that Robertson needed “to make serious amends to those you have radically offended.”
Charlie Sheen is no stranger to “offending” people, so he should, presumably, know an offensive remark when he hears or reads one. He had many friends who were offended by Phil Robertson’s remarks, so Sheen wanted to stick up for them.
Displaying perhaps a bit of the anger that Charlie Sheen counsels against having in the television series Anger Management, he also stated that it was a “miracle” that Robertson had “a job outside of dirt-clod stacking.”
A&E has suspended Phil Robertson for an indefinite period of time following the ongoing backlash against the Duck Dynasty star’s controversial comments.
Phil Robertson’s remarks have gotten widespread publicity, most of it condemning his anti-gay slurs. Robertson said that homosexuality is a sin, and “sin: it’s not logical, my man. It’s just not logical.” He also remarked to GQ that, “as a man,” he considers a woman’s vagina to “be more desirable that a man’s anus.”
However, Phil Robertson is not without his share of supporters, like former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who stand up for Robertson’s First Amendment right to free speech.
Palin and others might be correct in saying that Robertson is exercising his use of free speech, but IMHO that does not mean that the people who are condemning Robertson’s remarks are also motivated by hatred, as Palin seems to suggest when in a Facebook post she called them and their feedback: “intolerants’ hatin’.”
She also wrote that the people who were criticizing Phil Robertson “for voicing his personal opinion are taking on all of us.”
The Robertson family is standing behind Phil Robertson and his right to freedom of speech and have stated that they will not continue on with Duck Dynasty if Phil is not a part of it. The future of Duck Dynasty is now unclear, but at least for now, the Robertson family are unified and are sticking together.
Charlie Sheen definitely expressed his own right to freedom of speech by calling Phil Robertson “Mallard brained” and writing on Twitpic that Phil Robertson had an “army of scabies and bull weevils sequestered deep” within his beard.”

Case of the kettle calling the pot black!!
This guy? Really? Well if that isn’t funny.
Im sure the gay community is proud to have the support of a drug laden, alcohol soaked wife/ woman beater, absentee parent whoremonger like Sheen.
a book written thousands of years ago that may or may not say that homosexuality is a sin doesn’t give someone the right to bash an entire community.
Like Charlie Sheen ever pondered 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 long enough to know what a man far wiser than himself was quoting in the first place that started all this whiney baby boo hoo wah wah wah crap rotfl……..
I have been a long time fan of Charlie, and will not watch two and a half men since he was fired, however, he needs to wake up and realize that Phil also has a right to give his opinion. Phil did not introduce a new ideal, he simply quoted the Bible. I have several translations of the Bible in my house and in doing research realized that Phil actually cut back from the NIV translation. If anything he did not go far enough. While I, like Charlie, enjoy my “strong drink”, I think Charlie was offended at the wrong thing. He should have been offended that the scripture Phil quotes groups drunkards and adulterers with the likes of homosexuals and those who have sex with animals. Everyone needs to realize that A & E did not only violate Phil’s freedom of speech, but also his freedom of religion. This great nation was based on a freedom of religion (allowing all faiths), not a freedom from religion (denying all beliefs). If a satinist or atheist is allowed to give their opinion, why should a Christian, Jew, or Muslim not be afforded the same right. Charlie, regardless of my respect for you as a top notch actor, shame on you for denying my rights to speak and believe as I choose.
Charlie Sheen, you suck!!!
Pile of crap Charlie Sheen
Glad to know that Charlie Sheen doesn’t support free speech or America. He basically says that Robertson must retract his biblical viewpoint because it isn’t shared by Sheen’s gay friends. The day I’m not allowed to speak my opinions freely is the day I’ve lost faith in the people of this great country.
