I don't think it works that way in the Corps or any other military Courts Martial. This guy had to say something they wanted to hear prior to the deal being struck and they're not going to let him off the hook with the old 'no reccollection or 5th Amendment trick.

I'm sure part of the agreement was if he didn't testify, then the deal was null and void!!

With reporters like Christiane Anamanpour and Glenn Beck, I can't consider CNN liberal at all.
If anything, they are just not as extreme as the FOX Noise Channel. Since that is the case I can see how you may view them as 'liberal'. The reality of their content and reporters state otherwise.

Makes me wonder if the Roman Legions, the Vikings, or the Mongol horde of Ghengis Khan ever had to worry about "immunity"???
Are we fighting a war, or playing a silly-a$$ed politically correct "game"? All of our forces should have a blanket immunity to prosecution. Civilians die in wars! Get over it!:evilgrin:
