The article you posted and the article you linked are two different documents.
Is this your own editorial?
Is this your own editorial? No, it is not. The original posting is what was at the link http://www.voanews.com/english/2007-12-15-voa2.cfm earlier.
However, it has been replaced by another article by Ms. Collins; if you take a look at posting #13, I have included the current article in it.
I have tried to find the version that was at http://www.voanews.com/english/2007-12-15-voa2.cfm previously at VOA, but I have not succeeded.
To some extent, this demonstrates the archival value of Free Republic; although VOA has apparently quietly removed the original article, it still remains archived here at Free Republic.
