COUNTERFEIT $200 BILL WITH GEORGE W BUSH ON IT CASHED!
Police in the US are searching for a man who paid for his groceries with a forged 200 dollar bank note bearing the image of President George W Bush.
A cashier accepted the bill, which also showed a picture of the White House, with signs on the lawn including "we like ice cream" and "USA deserves a tax cut".
Police were startled the note was accepted because it was so blatantly fake Mr Bush does not appear on any US bills and the US Mint does not even print such a denomination.
The imitation was marked as "moral legal tender" and also bore a counterfeit signature of former President Ronald Reagan who was described as "Political Mentor".
The man used the forgery to pay for groceries worth 150 dollars at the Food Lion store in Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina. The note was discovered on September 6.
