There seems to be mad confusion out there among members of Congress, both on the left and the right.

Allow me to clarify: you work for the people - period. No one else. And certainly not for yourself. So, consider this a heads-up of what's bubbling beneath the surface.

Just...

...Sweeney and Kerry, that is.

One, reportedly, can't seem to keep his hands off his wife; the other, purportedly, can't seem to keep his foot out of his mouth.

So, People, Inc.  Big social services organization covering Buffalo and Western NY.  Presumably, doers of good things.

But, so too is Buffalo's Everywoman Opportunity Center (doers of good things, that is).  Their self-sufficiency calculator for low-income New Yorkers, has proven itself financially useful and incredibly...
