      County Judge Urges Property Tax Raise to Fund Imminent Civil War if Obama is Re-elected
      To prepare the Sheriff’s department in Lubbock County, Texas, for the imminent civil war that would ensue if Obama were re-elected, and to counter the threat of U.N. troops invading Lubbock County, of all places, under Obama’s  dictatorship, the county judge wants property taxes raised by 1.7 cents.



      More than the intelligence possessed by the judge, Tom Head, to which we would come later, his argument shows he is convinced about Lubbock County having the most gullible populace in the world – they will buy anything you tell them. However, after careful review of facts, and considering the disbelief Tom Head must have experienced when elected as county judge by the same populace – he cannot be blamed for his radical conclusions – ‘these people must be crazy.’



      So, what did the county judge actually say?

      He expressed his meticulous logic live on Fox 34 News @ Nine in Lubbock on Monday night. His arguments were supposed to explain why property taxes in the county should be raised by 1.7 cents. And he argued that property taxes need to be raised because of what Obama might do if re-elected:



      “He’s going to try to hand over the sovereignty of the United States to the UN, and what is going to happen when that happens?” asked Tom Head.



      What? Oh, what!?



      “I’m thinking the worst. Civil unrest, civil disobedience, civil war maybe. And we’re not just talking a few riots here and demonstrations, we’re talking Lexington, Concord, take up arms and get rid of the guy.”



      He actually ‘thinks.’ What a surprise!



      “Now what’s going to happen if we do that, if the public decides to do that? He’s going to send in U.N. troops. I don’t want ‘em in Lubbock County. OK. So I’m going to stand in front of their armored personnel carrier and say ‘you’re not coming in here.’”



      He counts himself among the public, which is a decided improvement. But he understands he might play the martyr, but probably the public won’t.



      “And the sheriff, I’ve already asked him, I said ‘you gonna back me’ he said, ‘yeah, I’ll back you’. Well, I don’t want a bunch of rookies back there. I want trained, equipped, seasoned veteran officers to back me.”



      Okay, he recognizes the public in Lubbock County as a ‘bunch of rookies’ so they need to pay for his war games.



      As a county judge in Texas, of course, Tom Head is the head of civil defense and disaster relief in the county – and also presides over hearings on admittance to state hospitals for the mentally ill and mentally retarded.



      So, let’s consider his logic and its premises:



      As a Republican, he believes civil war is unavoidable if Obama gets re-elected. Right? That’s the first premise of his argument.



      Next, he believes raising property taxes would help fund defense against the imminent civil war. This is the second premise of his logic.



      Third, he holds that the decision on raising property taxes must be made now so that future contingencies can be handled properly by the county. This is the third premise of his logic.



      Since he wants the decision to raise property taxes to be made now to battle contingencies that are certain to occur if Obama gets re-elected, it seems to me he is saying Obama is certain to be re-elected, otherwise why raise the taxes?



      Given that his clear purpose was Obama-bashing, his logic seems self-defeating. He seems resigned to the fact of Obama’s re-election – so property taxes in Lubbock County must be raised by 1.7 cents.
