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.

I’d be funny if the stolen teleprompter gear included yet-another-speech about redistributing the wealth.

...yet-another-speech about redistributing the wealth... LOL - Yet another? There is only one speech. The Teleprompter has a shuffle mode that moves the paragraphs around. It also has an random snide remark insert-er with a reminder to scratch nose with middle finger.

“The Teleprompter has a shuffle mode “
Do you have to shake it to do that?

How much ransom are the thieves asking for TOTUS? They want 1000 terrorists freed and Obama will likely cave.

With all the billions wasted on government slush you couldn't afford to pay one minimum wage flunky to watch the ___ing truck! None of the flunkies that work for the government work for minimum wage.

They should leave the thieves alone, after all the Dems told us the looters in New Orleans only wanted to touch nice things.
