NEW YORK (AP) - 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."

Wow. What are the odds of finding 1000 liberals in New York City who want a new program they think will give them free stuff?

How many are paid? Funny how they are reported and the Tea parties are all but ignored.
Should have been titled 1000 commmies demand the tax payers pay their bill.

No one in America -- except Senators and Congressmen--
will ever get Kennedy-care = the care Ted Kennedy got.
Proton beam for glioblastoma (inappropriate)
Tumor Board from the entire East Coast (unbelievable)
The rest get "No-Kennedy-Healthcare-for-You Bill"

The leftist/progressive/procommunist types will do anything they can to resuscitate and resurrect this hideous abomination (Obamacare).

I guess the morons in the Lame Slime Media do not realize that they will be censured too. No wonder why they became journalist. There too stupid to know what is good for them. They rather do what FEELS good.

Notice the Professionally Printed signs in the video below and remember it is Time Square in Manhattan. There would be a lot of people there anyway.

We had more people than that in a SUBURB of SACRAMENTO - a tad smaller than NYC I’d say - show up against the plan at congressional town halls - yet this makes news.
No agenda here - nothing to see - move along.

Our government is already socialist. If Obamacare passes, it’s time to secede.
