Nor, for that matter, does it necessarily follow that sanity is
possessed by Dave!

And your insistence on the distinction implies that there is some doubt as
to Dave!’s sanity.

It was a clever, logical twist on the assertion of Dave! (a joke)

I am prepared to vouch Dave!’s sanity.

Well, from your statement below, that’s not saying much.

Then again, I think pretty much everyone is sane.

??? Except those who aren’t?

Even the folks John
habitually thinks of as psychotic seem to make consummate sense to me.

“Consummate sense”? Explain and cite please. Are you saying that the
diliberate killing of innocent people makes “consummate sense” to try and get
one’s will done? What if that will is a religious, holy one? Essentially,
it appears to me that you are endorsing a “2 wrongs make a right” stance.
Where is the “consummate sense” in that?

Richard is a nice guy; I’m sure he did no mean that.
Personally, I don’t draw a huge distinction between the “deliberate killing of
innocent people” and the indiscriminate/disproportionate use of force which
results in the “killing of innocent people”.
One has to wonder what the people you “habitually” think of as “psychotic” would
have made of Bush’s antics over the weekend. After fighting his muddled “war on
terror” and killing 1000’s to get Saddam Hussein’s elusive WMDs, he spent much
of the weekend eulogizg the man who supplied Hussein with WMD and funded
terrorism and armed America’s enemy in the Middle East.
Consummate sense? I think not!
