Whether the listing of him as a sponsor was accidental or if Sheen didn&#8217;t know the march&#8217;s purpose is to support abortion is still a question.<\/p>\n<p class=\"articles\">That Sheen, who plays a fictitious president on the hit NBC drama &#8220;West Wing,&#8221; was listed as a sponsor of the pro-abortion march was a surprise. Though he holds liberal views on other political issues, Sheen is a longtime pro-life supporter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"articles\">In 2001, Sheen was listed by Feminists for Life, a pro-woman group, as a &#8220;Remarkable Pro-Life Man,&#8221; along with actor Ben Stein, Congressman Chris Smith (R-NJ), and columnist George Will.
