This piece by Greg Gordon was posted on the Kansas City Star's web site November 2.
But it's old news -- the article was first published on McClatchy's web site more than 2 weeks ago.
Does anybody have an explanation for why the Kansas City Star would be posting old news?
UPDATE: From comments, a suggestion a subcontractor in India is posting old stories on the KC Star web site?! Bizarre! Does anybody have other examples?

Because, unlike you, most people are fallible. That's how.
Anonymous - I'm hoping there is a better explanation that "Gee, the KC Star is fallible."
There is! The work is being done in India! I wouldn't want that told either. Gosh don't we just love India so much that we now want to cover for them. WOW Good Job KC.
Not terribly shocking. The papers can use D.C. bureau copy when they see fit. Then, after they decide to use it, the story would go up on the web site automatically.
Papers hold wire stories all the time and use them when they need them.
Or maybe it's just a screw-up. I've seen bigger mysteries.
People make mistakes. Get over it.
Anonymous at 5:54 might have the new McClatchy motto: "People make mistakes, get over it."
You got it right mcclatchy watch. As I said before they don't care says "the big white elephant" plant. Just proved me right.
5:54 just proved why people don't read newspapers. Just get over it go digital.
The story was on the Web site. I think that counts as digital.
Could be some computer glitch or something. No big deal.
The Republican Party is just a bunch of white racists. It is filled with a bunch of Angry White Guys (and Gals) who think the 1965 Hart-Celler Immigration Act ruined America because it made it a lot harder for whites from Ireland, England, France, Germany, Italy, etc. to immigrate to the U.S. and made it a lot easier for the Chinese, Indians, Jamaicans, Mexicans, Egyptians, etc. to immigrate to the U.S. What these racists don't GET is that the 1965 Hart-Celler Immigration Act (Thank You Senator Ted Kennedy) greatly increased Diversity in the U.S. which has made OUR Nation stronger and a much more multicultural place to live. Before 1965 Whites of European descent made up 88% of the U.S. population. Now whites only make up 65% of the U.S. population and by 2042 they will only make up 49% of the population. By 2100 Whites of European descent will only make up about 30% of the U.S. population and only 3% of the World Population. The 2008 Election is just a turning point in American History though. By the end of this century white Europeans will be out of power in the United States(FINALLY!) and then we can finally end WHITE PRIVILEDGE and can get REAL Affirmative Action, REAL Reparations, REAL Change, and begin to redistribute wealth and property back to those who deserve it. Unfortunately, these Changes won't take place until the White Kids in Strollers and Elementary School today are in their 60's and 70's. The World is Flat. The white racist Republicans just don't seem to get it!
Scrappleface is way ahead of you, Anon at 8:06am, "Census: Whites in Minority by 2042, Ready to Cash In"
"Good jobs without full qualification, contractor set-asides on government projects, easier access to college, and more personal attention from Democrat candidates are among the special favors that Whites can expect to receive starting in the year 2042, experts said."
and
"Meanwhile, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said it will be ready to defend the rights of White people, to stem the outbreak of police citations for D.W.W. (driving while white), and to fight for things like guaranteed access to government documents written in English."
We await the Glorious Future!
