What do they mean when they're talking abou the Left and Right parties in Congress? Are they talking about the House/Senate, or do they mean Demo/Rep?? I'm confused.

Democrats and Republicans I'd assume.

They're talking about the political spectrum. Parties to the left are more liberal, parties to the right are more conservative (Of course it's not as simply as that, but you get the point.)

To elaborate on ClouD.Break's post, you can be far right or far left (really conservative or really liberal, respectively) or only moderately left or moderately right (closer to the middle of the political spectrum).

This is of course, in the mostly American sense. In different countries the left and the right vary a lot based on the dominate political parties. I want to say Germany (not sure) has multiple political parties so it's harder to classify people on this simple linear spectrum

Edit:
According to the wiki entry, they have bi axial political scales to accommodate multiple parties. Cool. -

liberals don't have to be left

hell most republicans are liberal when it comes to economics
