„For Martin Sheen, one small rudeness is a badge of honour. “You see,” he says, “the extraordinary thing is how closely The West Wing overlapped with the administration of George Bush. And every now and then, the whole crew on the show would go to Washington to shoot some exteriors and get the snow on the ground. Well, Andy Card was Bush’s chief of staff then and when we were in town invitations came out from him so that each person on the show could get to meet the equivalent person in the White House. Except for me! That man would not give me the time of day because he knew I had a history as a radical!”“
