Tom Head

Where do these guys come from?

Here is a Texas county judge that is convinced that Barack Obama is going to turn over American sovereignty to the United Nations. Of course, there is not one shred of evidence that Obama has plans to do so or has ever had that thought even cross his mind.

So how does a county official get reality so badly distorted that he lives in a political wonderland of craziness? Who knows? Maybe there is something to that Texas sun.

Recently, Lubbock County Judge Tom Head took to the airwaves to promote a 1.7% sales tax to enhance law enforcement and the justice system for the county. One of his reasons for the sales tax increase is his idea that once Obama is reelected he is going to let black helicopters and blue-helmeted soldiers run amuck through the United States.

Just imagine, a 1.7% sales tax can stop all that or at least prepare Lubbock County to hold off the rest of the world.

If Obama or any president really had these plans, then why would he wait for the unpredictability of a presidential election? He would have turned the country over to the U.N. in his first term instead of hoping to be reelected. Anyone in public office should have better sense than believing in these fairy tales.

Here are Head’s words:

“He’s going to try to hand over the sovereignty of the U.S. to the United Nations, what’s going to happen when that happens?

“I’m thinking worse case scenario. Civil unrest, civil disobedience, civil war maybe…we’re not just talking a few riots or demonstrations.

Judge Head said the county sheriff was ready to stand with him to fight off the might of the U.N. as it tries to subjugate freedom-loving Lubbock County. Never mind that the odds of a sheriff’s department fighting off an army are impossible, these two officials appear to be making contingency plans for that. Head explained how one of the greatest military victories in history could be accomplished.

“I don’t want rookies. I want trained, equip and seasoned veteran officers to back me.”

Veteran officers are great for fighting off crime. They are not trained soldiers with the most advance weaponry available. A 1.7% sales tax is not going to buy those weapons and training either. It might scare enough voters into approving it though.

Head said that he would personally confront the invaders “in front of their armored personnel carriers…I don’t want U.N. troops in Lubbock County.”

That is quite a boast by Head, but it is a safe one. It is never going to happen so he doesn’t have to follow through on his pretensions of courage.
