No sandwich for you


Wondering how those members of Congress are faring after living one week on a food stamp budget?
Check out the blogs run by Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) and Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Oh.).

Worth nothing, Ryan had a tough time made tougher thanks to crack TSA security in Manchester, who confiscated his peanut butter and jelly before he boarded a plane to Washington.
