HENRICO, VA (WWBT) – NBC12 has uncovered one of those stories that makes you think: "How in the world does that happen?!" A truck filled with President Obama's podiums and audio equipment was stolen in Henrico just days before his visit to Chesterfield.
We confirmed an investigation with the U.S. Defense Department. There are still a lot of questions. The biggest one being did the thieves intentionally target the President's truck or did they take advantage of a crime of opportunity and give a big "uh-oh" when they saw what was inside.
When you see President Obama speak, there is a pretty typical setup including the presidential seal on a podium, the see-thru Teleprompter and a portable sound system.
Thieves saw the truck carrying that equipment and couldn't resist the target.

OK the secret service got real lucky here. If thieves could get access to the truck with Obama’s podium and equipment inside they could just as easily put a bomb into the podium and blown him to bits. Isn't that stuff supped to be secured. With all the billions wasted on government slush you couldn't afford to pay one minimum wage flunky to watch the ___ing truck!

A truck filled with President Obama's podiums and audio equipment was stolen in Henrico just days before his visit to Chesterfield.LOL. Did Oboma have to call 911 because of withdrawal symptoms?

There are still a lot of questions. The biggest one being did the thieves intentionally target the President's truck or did they take advantage of a crime of opportunity and give a big "uh-oh" when they saw what was inside. No, the biggest one is "who the heck is in charge of this bozo operation, and why aren't they taking care of taxpayer's money? "

Correct me if I’m wrong, but why does this article say this a job for the “US Defense Dept.” if a truck is stolen? Even if it is property of our “Chiefly in Resident”.
Geez Louise, he ain’t “offically” a third world dictator yet, y’know.

van containing the President’s podium and TelePrompter was stolen from a parking lot at a campaign stop. When asked about the crime, the President was speechless and could not comment.
