Obama, a savvy guy, probably knows that his right to privacy had no 
protection in the situation, and probably wrote his prayer with the full 
understanding that it could end up in the press.   That doesn't make it 
more or less sincere; it just means that he wouldn't feel free to put 
anything sensitive on paper.

If you want maximum privacy, even in talking to God, you have to follow 
Howie's Mafia maxim: don't write if you can speak....
