When I looked over the Honduran Constitution, it appeared that once Zelaya made his unconstitutional attempt, he not only was to be removed from office, but he lost his citizenship. Did I read it wrong?

If so, the author is right on his removal from office and wrong on booting him out of the country.

No, you read it exactly right. He instantly lost his citizenship for his actions. The legislature and SC actually gave him a pass on that two or three times by not acting on that clause of their constitution. They warned him to cease and desist in those first instances and he did not. They did that for the good of the country because there is no legal obstacle requiring them to have patience with a traitor.
