Letter: Watch how Congress spends our money

I'm pretty sure I've read exactly this before in the site comments, but I can't remember exactly where, it's been a while back. I've noticed this a couple of times over the past year. Following their unfortunate habit of doing what they like with reader submissions and controlling the message, it looks like the editors are promoting occasional comments to letter status -- occasional right-wing comments, mind -- even though they have a box on the opinion page specifically for selected comments. Now why do you think they'd do that?
