Actor Martin Sheen Reveals Wife was Conceived in Rape,

and talks about his ‘strong’ anti-abortion views.

From the Metro Voice:
"In the interview he also discusses his Catholic faith, which he says includes praying the Rosary, belief in trans-substantiation, and the communion of saints.

Sheen, a complex character whose Catholic devotional life and pro-life views have not stopped him from backing the presidency of Barack Obama, was interviewed by Gay Byrne; the interview was released on Irish broadcaster RTE’s website April 3."
For the life of me, I cannot fathom how anyone can claim to be a faithful Christian who prays, yet supports political candidates who condone and facilitate killing unborn babies.

I just can't. It smacks of neurosis or hypocrisy or both, IMHO.
