Judge Tom Head Has Concerns in Lubbock

It would seem the current republican philosophy is that you can never go too far, never be too utterly insane. On the heels of Todd Akin's brutal assessment of "legitimate" rape and the ability of a woman to suppress an unwanted pregnancy on her own, comes the Honorable Tom Head, of Lubbock, Texas.

Head is a judge out there in the wild flat country of west Texas. He is also the Lubbock County director of emergency management. Regarding the current election process, his honor has some deep concerns. He told a Lubbock TV station that, "I have some opinions of what they're doing (they being Barak Obama and a democratic controlled senate) and what they're trying to do if they stay in power. I have to prepare for that."

His Honor went on to say he is fully aware of the president's nefarious plan. "He is going to try to hand 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 talking a few riots here and demonstrations, we're talking Lexington and Concord, take up arms and get rid of the guy. 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 want a hit of the acid this guy is on. It looks to be really, really good.

Judge Head also claims he has spoken with Lubbock county sheriff Kelly Rowe about the situation and Rowe assures him that his department is behind him all the way. According to the judge, Rowe said that he'll need experienced officers to back him up, not a bunch of rookies. Rowe, knowing a severe psychotic when he sees one, told the Lubbock newspaper that the conversation never happened.

When the shit hit the fan, Head claimed his remarks were taken "out of context." What context that might be was left unexplained.

Head is not unfamiliar with controversy. In 2009, county commissioners had to pull down a poster on a public bulletin board put there by him that showed several African American men wearing Obama campaign buttons and tee shirts. The caption beneath the photos suggested that all of them had committed armed robberies and smoked crack.

Lubbock County GOP chair, Carl Tepper told the press that democrats were guilty of "opportunism" when they called for Head's, well, head and that he'd phoned the judge and left a message for him offering his "moral support."

How can anyone justify this bullshit? How can anyone on the planet earth think that the republican party isn't fatally infested with a bunch of complete lunatics? Just listen to what these monsters are saying, look at what they believe. The brute racism, the complete detachment from reality is staggering.

Excuse me, but I have to go spit. It is the only real answer I have to people like this.
