President Obama says he's been doing "a lot of praying" in recent weeks while faced with tough choices on Libya and other crises at home and abroad.

"I am praying that I'm making the best possible decisions, and that I've got the strength to serve the American people well," he said in an interview Tuesday with ABC News' Diane Sawyer.

....Despite Obama's public professions on religion and spirituality, many Americans continue to doubt the president's faith.

My question is, praying to who or what?

Allah, Moloch, same difference.

The ONLY person I can imagine this marxist/muzzie/narcissist/nihilist/race-baiting SOB praying to his HIMSELF.

He's praying he makes it to the end of his term without going to prison and that he leaves the place a disfunctional third world cesspool, which will make him a hero in the middle east and parts of asia.

He's the madhi in the films produced by Iran.

Doesn’t prayer require some degree of humility?
