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.

This looks like a job for Batman, but he’s busy at Occupy Wall Street. Somebody crapped on the Batmobile, it seems. Robin’s on the case, tho Howard Stern’s miffed that she’s not available to laugh at his every utterance.

Is Obama going to declare martial law now? Isn't he curled up in a corner sucking his thumb? He may not be in any condition to declare anything.

Maybe the TOTUS (or Michelle) will declare martial law for him.

If thieves could get access to the truck with Obamas 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! Perish the thought, Gonzo! Everyone loves Deer Leeder!
(do I really have to say it?)
I reckon if they recover any of it, they'd better really check it out...
