Clerk fooled by $200 bill with Bush's picture

State police aren't laughing about the person who passed some funny money -- a $200 bill with President George W. Bush's picture on it -- at a women's clothing store.

Among other things, the bill had a hokey serial number -- DUBYA4U2001 -- and didn't bear the signature of the secretary of the treasury. Instead, the bill was "signed" by Ronald Reagan, whose title was "Political Mentor" and by Bush's father, who was listed as "Campaign Advisor and Mentor."

The back of the bill was even goofier.

It depicts the White House with several signs erected on the lawn, including those reading "We Like Broccoli" and "USA Deserves A Tax Cut."

There is no accounting for stupidity.

1. We do not like Broccoli

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. Anyone that dumb, working at a cash register, deserves to be taken

I would like to say "I hope it comes out of her pay." But since they caught the perpetrator, I guess everything will be alright.

Maybe the clerk was being smart by taking the money, because then the crime was definitely committed and he/she could call the cops.

Who knows. I don't!

I'm glad they caught the perpetrator.

3. I wonder how many of those $200 bills are in circulation!

It is pretty funny.
