NEW YORK – About a thousand people rallied in Manhattan on Saturday in support of federal health care reform legislation.

The event near Times Square began shortly after the funeral for U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy, and took-on the feel of a tribute to the liberal leader.

One person carried a sign that said, "TeddyCare for all."

there were many more around the country protesting AGAINST the government take over of our health care..I heard one had 30,000 people at it..

was this one of the planned "grassroots" ones? where they were being bused in and everything? I like how they have to get orders from the DNC to gather in support, but against it is normal people getting groups together that aren't bussed in...hmmm.. i wonder which one it true.

Up to 1,000 rally in NYC for health care bill

So one of the most liberal cities in the country, a city with some 8 million population, managed to produce 1,000 people to support govt-run Health Care?

That's what, 1/80 of one percent who favor it enough to come out?

The Democrats have lost. And they have lost HUGE.

Good news is, this means the American people have won huge. A net win all around.
