What the heck is in the water in Texas?

"He's going to try to hand over the sovereignty of the United States to the U.N., and what is going to happen when that happens? 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."
—Texas county judge Tom Head, on President Obama

He goes on to say: "OK, what do you think he is going to do when that happens? He is going to call in the U.N. troops, personnel carriers, tanks and whatever." And your evidence on this is what, exactly? Why hasn't he done this already in his term if he was going to do it? Head is the county judge in Lubbock county, which is the highest county elected official, and he's been in office since 1999. Among other things, he's in charge of sanity hearings. In a fuller version of the quote, he says that Obama will bring in U.N. troops. Most countries know how many guns are in the U.S., somehow I don't think they'd send their troops in here. Much less the fact that, contrary to how most people think, the U.N. doesn't really have a standing army.

...a peacekeeping mission here, invoked by the president in charge of an army and police forces that can and have quelled large-scale demonstrations? And this from a judge. There must be a very specific group of lawyers that love him.
