I agree with a lot of you that said this judge is probably a little nutty and is trying to get attention.
But actually the nuttiest part of this theory or others like it is Obama invoking martial law if he is re-elected. I can see a possibility of him invoking martial law if he loses the election...BUT only if there is some other way to excuse it. That said, though, I seriously doubt our honorable armed forces would follow that order. Now an armed TSA...that's a different matter. I think if at any point by any politician the TSA becomes armed, we will have a pretty radical shift in our country. But maybe that's what people said about the FBI back in the day?
So much of this stuff is just way out there, though. Doesn't hurt to think about even the outlandish possibilities, though, and deconstruct them, as long as you end up sleeping better at night.

Texas Judge: ‘Civil War’ If Obama Re-Elected
So, three issues to discuss here:Lubbock County Judge Tom Head is convinced that Mr. Obama winning a second term would lead to a revolt by the American people and he’s is pushing a tax increase for the district attorney’s office and the Lubbock County Sheriff’s Office. He says the money is needed to “beef up” it’s resources in case President Obama wins the November election.
In the event of civil unrest Judge Head said he’s concerned the President would hand over sovereignty of the United States to the U.N. and that the American public would react violently.

1) Theory about civil unrest > UN intervention > armed revolt. Plausible?
2) Judge Head: anyone know much about him?
3) What about his push for more police?
