Absolutely not! If he fails, we all do. We were in the pot for 8 long years - time to support him and do everything we can to make him succeed or we will never regain any respect from the rest of the world.

You know what's sad about your post? You're the first person I've see who actually prays for Obama. It always seems that christians pray for Republicans. We should all pray for wisdom for our leaders regardless of party.

No I do not wish for him to fail. If he fails our country pays for it.
What I do want is for him to slow down. Think before he acts and do what he promised change DC politics. So far alls that we have seen is exactly what we saw during Bush 2 but pumped up to an all time high.

That may be the perception , but from where i come from, we pray for the sinners and the saints, afterall at the end of the day we want them all to be saved.

I see no attack. Pointing out that this issue has been a topic of numerous threads is an attack?

Bush had a $500 Billion deficit, obama will quadruple that in his first year, in ten years it will be $9 trillion.

Since we are all theoretically sinners, shouldn't that read we all want to be saved not we want them to be saved?
