Czech President Becomes YouTube Hit After Stealing Pen
The video doesn’t offer subtitles but you get the idea. Red circles and arrows – complemented with comical music -- Klaus is caught in the act as Chilean President Sebastian Pinera speaks during a news conference.
After being caught on video for lifting a fancy pen into his coat pocket during an official event, more than 5,000 Czechs have joined a Facebook campaign to mail President Vaclav Klaus pens on May 2, 2011 because “Mr. President obviously has nothing to write with.”

A video was uploaded on YouTube Monday and now has almost 400,000 views.
