Save Marine Life

James Joyner | Wednesday, July 28, 2004

I was somewhat disappointed that the GoogleAd PSA* “Save Marine Life” didn’t have anything to do with providing improved fragmentation vests, more training in stabilization operations, and the best equipment for our Marines.

I’m sure that the Adopt-a-Beach, Beachwatch, and Seasearch programs are quite important but they are very unlikely to save the life of even one Marine.

*It’s technically a violation of Google’s TOS for me to click through on my own links, but since I don’t get paid for PSAs, I can’t see any harm.

See, that's funny. Ann Coulter has a lot to learn from you, James.
