A U.S. Army Reserve major from Florida scheduled to report for deployment to Afghanistan within days has had his military orders revoked after he argued that he should not be required to serve under a president who has not proven his legitimacy for office.
His attorney, Orly Taitz, confirmed to WND the military has rescinded his impending deployment orders.
"We won! We won before we even arrived," she said with excitement. "It means that the military has nothing to show for Obama. It means that the military has directly responded by saying Obama is illegitimate – and they cannot fight it. Therefore, they are revoking the order!"
She continued, "They just said, 'Order revoked.' No explanation. No reasons – just revoked."
A hearing on the questions raised by Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook, an engineer who told WND he wants to serve his country in Afghanistan, was scheduled for July 16 at 9:30 a.m.
"As an officer in the armed forces of the United States, it is [my] duty to gain clarification on any order we may believe illegal. With that said, if President Obama is found not to be a 'natural-born citizen,' he is not eligible to be commander-in-chief," he told WND only hours after the case was filed.
"[Then] any order coming out of the presidency or his chain of command is illegal. Should I deploy, I would essentially be following an illegal [order]. If I happened to be captured by the enemy in a foreign land, I would not be privy to the Geneva Convention protections," he said.

It just means they punted to moot the case.
Here’s a story on it.
Bttt
~~Maj. Cook news, and I think someone needs to just close her mouth .. PING!
Gotta say “Wow!” if this pans out.
Hope it’s not the last.
This person will soon be discharged.
That’s not all that got revoked; his chances of promotion are pure vapor now!
Exactly. This will be the end of it.
And if any legal challenges ever do go forward, Obama will simply claim they are illegitimate and ignore them.
He's commissioned.
When others challenge Obama on his Constitutional eligibility to hold office, is he going to rescind all their orders?
That’s true...what is it dismissed?
This rescending may have originated much lower the the WH. Command wouldn’t want someone in the field challenging the CiC. Also, resecnding his deployment may be opening the door to bring him up on charges stateside.
Bump Dat...
I agree, but if this becomes a trend it may force obama to show the real birth certificate and show the world what he has been hiding all this time. I still say he was born here, but he must be listed as WHITE on the cert and that would prove to be a disaster for him.
Thanks .. listening to ole Ed ... he’s pumping this hard.
Think the show’s about to end.
You have know idea what’s going to happen. A politically motivated dismissal?
