I am unable to do the most popular pages or top ten referrals due to a programming error. When we switched over to the 'new look' back in May, I didn't take into account various code additions I'ld made therefore Google Analytics didn't register it until I noticed it sometime in November. Oops. Although the Lexicon and Primer have been popular along w/ the traditional 'Modern Militia' series. Since April however, DOOT has gone from 61 to 82 followers on Google, 331 to 365 followers on Facebook and from 104 to 233 on Twitter. The word is getting out there.
DOOT attended IGOLD 2011 and GRPC 2011 but was unable again to make the NRA convention. Illinois is now the last holdout state w/o CCW in any form making us a laughingstock. We've had much fun watching the demise of the Brady Campaign, CSGV and other anti-gun groups as they flail around in their death throws, attempting to remain relevant. Kaveman is taking a sabbatical from blogging and we wish him well in his endeavors.
2012 is another election year and we're likely going to end up w/ another POS as POTUS no matter who wins. What will matter is who they nominate to the courts. It's going to be a long year as the campaign season heats up and the endless attacks flood every type of media in existence.
Dig in and keep your powder dry folks, it's going to be a bumpy ride.
