A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

George W. Bush is immeasurably dangerous.

Common sense is not very common.

Would that mean that the lack of common sense becomes the new common sense?

Just because I have common sense, doesn't mean I follow it. Sometimes the foolish path has better scenery. :)

Common sense is not very common.

The only commonality is ignorance among the ignorant.

I prefer "in most cases common sense is neither".

Common sense is not very common.
i've always thought that the "common" refered to the fact that the "common" man or woman should easily be able to show this kind of sense. as in, you don't have to be particularly educated or have any particular experience to exercise this sense. it certainly doesn't refer to how frequently such sense is actually demonstrated in human behavior, since the ABILITY to show good judgment doesn't have anything much to do with the actual exercise of that judgment.

Of course common sense is common. It's good sense that is unfortunately rare.
