republican reason to raise taxes a small amount

Lubbock County Judge Tom Head and Commissioner Mark Heinrich went into great detail Monday night on FOX 34 News @ Nine about why it is necessary to raise the tax rate by 1.7 cents the next fiscal year.......



is if President Obama is reelected.

“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?,” Head asked.

“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.

"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'.

"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."

Sounds sane and logical. Wonder how these idiots get on TV - oh, yeah, the producers look for them. So people can take them seriously and write about them in blogs and in forum threads.

I know Larry calls Harvard graduates idiots but what does that make these people: imbeciles? They live in a fantasy lala land...and make decisions that have an impact on peoples day to day life, very frightening.

Whether you agree with the judge, or think his theories are unrealistic, the reality is a tax hike that will provide an additional $832,433 coupled with $2 million in cuts to make the numbers work.

A combination of spending cuts and tax increases to create some jobs....

He's just pandering to his constituency. Isn't that where they landed that airplane whose captain thought God was talking to him? He was yelling about Iraq and Jesus. Got him on the ground for evaluation they said "We know! He tells us the same things, all the time!" So they let him go!
