You calling it a joke doesn't mean it is a joke. While some people are joining for the tongue-in-cheek-ness of the group, plenty of the members legitimately hate our current president for a myriad of reasons.

That "prayer" is a very thinly veiled request for Obama's head on a platter. Calling for, or implying you want the death of anyone is unacceptable, no matter who you're talking about or where you're talking about it.
