So the case was basically dismissed on the technicality of his no longer being in danger of serving in Afghanistan anywise, not on factual grounds pertaining to Obama’s birth certificate. This explains why the Pentagon acted with uncharacteristic lightning speed to rescind his orders to Afghan. Probably direct orders from the top to do it, so that just these grounds could be used to dismiss the case.
Now he needs to file suit over his dismissal in the private sector at the request of the Defense Department and name ZERO as a co-defendent.
Amazing. Back when I served, disobeying an order would get you locked up in the brig. The fact that this episode would so quickly get swept under the rug speaks volumes.
He wasn’t “rejected.” He got the relief he sought without going through the lawsuit. That’s the definition of “mootness.”
If someone else does it — if a lot of someone else’s do it, some court will eventually hear it even if each person’s orders are rescinded.
Thanks for the update. Stefan did a good job on camera. With this precedent we can only hope other officers will follow and force this issue.
This was totally predictable once the orders were revoked. You can’t protest an order as being illegal if no order exists.
Another judge bites the dust. A judge who promised to uphold the law just lied to the American public again. Wonder what he promised for his pig of a decision.
they are now in a Catch 22 as everyone who does not wish to go to Afghanistan is going to file similar actions
The Headline should be “Barack Blinked”
How many times can the courts play that game (protecting Hussein)?
Time for more patriots to step forward with similar legal action.
I'm waiting for active servicemen to take similar action.
Wait.
I thought that he requested clarification of the President's standing to ensure that he was following a lawful order.
BIG difference. But, I'd never count on a journalist to get the facts straight.
Just D@mn.
Don’t forget to donate to Dr Orly Taitz.

The case with Major Cook is far from over. Only this particular filing was dismissed. Similar cases, after a period of time, have ruled with the plaintiff (i.e. Major Cook).

The headline is misleading. Obama blinked, wussied out. He didn’t prove he is Constitutionally qualified.
So........
Question of the day:
WHAT’S THE MILITARY GOING TO DO WHEN THEY GET FLOODED WITH SAY 1000 OF THESE? OR 3K? OR 15k?
They have established that if you question Obama’s legitimacy, they you can get your orders revoked. This is a complete Cluster F^%# for the military.
