He's effectively saying that the only authority he acknowledges is the county and that in his opinion - completely contrary to the actual facts - the land belongs to the county.

It does not.

He should probably quit with the strange legal theories and stick to the facts of the case: he was using federal land and abiding by the rules until the federal government changed the rules on him.

This posse comitatus kind of rhetoric is really unsound.

A better question is: why is the federal government continuing to hold onto so much land after more than 150 years? Why is it not sold at a market price to people like Mr. Bundy who are making good use of it?

"A better question is: why is the federal government continuing to hold onto so much land after more than 150 years?"

Another good question is:

Why does the BLM get to make the Law and then have Rustler Reid's minion Director Neil Kornze enforce it?

“he was using federal land and abiding by the rules until the federal government changed the rules on him.”

Yeah, that always sucks and can strongly motivate you.

“Why is it not sold at a market price?”

I think Dingy Harry (D-Nev) was trying very hard to do just that.
