Judge issues warrant to search Bush's head for evidence (AP/CNN)
PORT ARTHUR, Texas (AP) -- In the middle of Joshua Bush's forehead, two inches above his eyes, lies the evidence that prosecutors say could send the teenager to prison for attempted murder: a 9 mm bullet, lodged just under the skin.

Prosecutors say it will prove that Bush, 17, tried to kill the owner of a used-car lot after a robbery in July. And they have obtained a search warrant to extract the slug.

But Bush and his lawyer are fighting the removal, in a legal and medical oddity that raises questions about patient privacy and how far the government can go to solve crimes without running afoul of the constitutional protection against unreasonable searches and seizures.

OK, it's somebody else named Bush, but I couldn't pass it up. Note they do have something in common: the bullet is lodged in "the soft, fatty tissue of his forehead", which Our Beloved Leader must certainly have in abundance, as there is none of the usual type of tissue there.

1. When I saw the headline
I thought to myself, "They can look all they want, they won't find anything but a big empty". But this case does seem to be unusual.

3. any warrants dealing with the other Bush's shrub-like head will arise...
from assault with a dead-weapon, if he uses his head for a change, during any single example of his massive crimnal activity.
