MittRomney twitter supporters claim "Muslim Season" is about to begin

What to do with all that energy once your local KKK chapter closes? Never fear - twitter is here!

Over the past couple weeks the phrase 'muslim season' has exploded on twitter. Who is spreading this term? Of the half dozen accounts that I have checked out, all of them describe themselves as 'Christians' and people who 'love America'.

Does Southern-Fried, Snake-Charmin', God Fearin', Gun lovin', War Mongerin' fundamentalist Christians actually count as being 'Christians' at all? No more crazy than magic underwear and the 'Garden of Eden' being located in Missouri I guess.

An example of the muslim hate tweets ---> http://wp.me/p1asum-Dy

We probably have nothing to fear from any particular religion as regards our government but I would think that Mormon would be more probable than Muslim. Women get the shaft in both IMO.

Muslims are not like the people these cowboys portray them as. Muslims when they come to this country, and are very grateful to be here. I lost five of my friends in tower one on 9/11 one of whom was Muslim. I miss her, and the others very much. My Neighbors are Muslims, and have been very kind, and Gracious for the 15 years they have lived next door to me. I am so sick of these bigots who feel the need to let us know they are the true Americans, and that they should be the true judge of what is good and bad.
