We all know when Obama has teleprompter difficulties all hell breaks loose and the President becomes a dazed and confused deer in the media's headlights. But this time, it's not the typical technical hiccup, or an ill-projected sentence by a speech writer - but rather, a devastating case of larceny, during his East Coast (Campaign) Bus Tour. That's right, the infamous, well-oiled POTUS teleprompter has been stolen.
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.
Houston, we have a very serious problem.
The question is, what are the thieves going to program it to say?
AGAIN???
In other news, www.attackwatch.com is rounding up the usual suspects.....Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld......
Can't wait...maybe they'll sell it to the Enquirer!!
I’m sure David Axelfraud will pay the ransom Hamas demands ...
That should be a hanging offense.
Get a rope...
Tough to fence that one. Not much of market for I’s, Me’s, UM’s and AH’s.
Well,that’s one way to SHUT HIM UP! :-)
Good thing that these were not bad guys who could have loaded the podium with C4 then left it where it was...
David is probably upset since there was an interruption on the conveyor belt from the Chicago-based AstroTurf Factory to the rollers of the TOTUS. Think in terms of Lucy at the Chocolate Factory.
Wonder what the Secret Service alert code is for a kidnapped TOTUS???;^)
Hmmm...do we need to invoke the 25th amendment? After all it's a known fact that the current POTUS cannot function without TOTUS!
Without even clicking your link, I have visual memories of Lucy stuffing the bon bons into her uniform, mouth full of chocolates.
SPEECHLESS IN SEATLE . . .
More like TOTUS ran away.

Priceless Post;)
Rush’s schtick a little while ago - almost word for word. LOL!!!
OH NOES!!!! I hope he can lip sinc until someone finds his voice. What a terribly unfortunate thing to have happen before a scripted speech.
I’ve been doing planes, trains, and automobiles today. No chance to listen to Rush but glad he’s on top of his game today. ;)
