    Now I noticed people who got the membership (and received a free copy of his upcoming book) also purchased the book apparently.


    So correct me if I'm wrong if I stick Freedom on the name of something it makes me some sort of person who fights for right and just.

    I'm guessing my bank is going to change it's name to Freedom Bank any day now. Because you know those service charges are more then justified. It's not like they're making record profits during an economic downfall or anything.

    A lot of the things say "coming soon", so hold off paying for that membership Mele, you may want to make sure he completes his website so you can actually talk with him on his forum.

    I think the extra $5 is for those people who try to abuse the system by receiving something for nothing, a payout from Joe by using his forum for free. He knows they'll love it so much that they'll want to join the full membership but you can't fool Joe.

    But do I have to pay $14.95 to become an integral part of an American movement to restore our government to the people???

    And if I pay the $14.95, can I still NOT get the book?
