    But that’s what that sentence means.

    “… ousted from Congress after fabricating…” The key word here is “after”

    Edit: if it said he was ousted from Congress BEFORE fabricating his life story than your correction would be accurate.

        I’m not completely sure. But before I commented I was thinking it’s funny how many people up voted that comment.

      My point is that it took a full year of hilariously obvious lies for any corrective action. In Congress (one of the administrative bodies of the country I live in) I’d prefer for liars and dishonest conmen to be excluded from taking part in governance.

      Edit reply: if he got ousted when he first told the lies, that would have been more acceptable than waiting a full year. I hope you can understand the difference.
