It would be easy to say this is idiotic (because it is).
But, as I have always said to people who would call themselves atheists: "You don't think God exists? For your sake, you'd better be right."
Exactly. The First Amendment states that Congress can't set up an official state chucrch like in Europe, but in return it can't restrict people's right to practice their religion of choice. Also, I don't know about the situation, but I think that Pres. Bush would only ask people to pray, I doubt he'd order them to. Big difference, IMHO.
