I'm probably missing something here but I believe you should be able
to roll over any amount of 401 money into an IRA without any tax
liability.

I would want it out and pay the taxes now before the rates really go
up.
Maybe a Roth but I am thinking I will just run t myself.
One of these days somebody is going to decide the deficit is important
and that tax deferred money is just way too attractive.

There are no tax consequences... you have 60 days to roll it to an IRA.
Withdrawing money from an IRA incurs a tax liability at whatever rate you're
at. A ROTH is taxed initially, then tax free when you take out the money.

I am not really interested in a regular IRA. I want to pay my taxes
now and own the money. The Roth really looks the most attractive if I
keep it in a fund..

That might not be a good idea unless you are over 59 1/2 or something.
There are penalties for just hauling it out before that.
