"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved." -- Confucius

Obamapalooza

Mayor Daley puts $2 million city price tag for Obamafest. Obama will pay election night rally costs
