Heh: Rep. Steve Stockman puts first-day Obamacare enrollment numbers into perspective

A whopping six people reportedly enrolled in Obamacare on Healthcare.gov’s launch day. That number’s sad enough on its own, but Rep. Steve Stockman managed to make it sound even more pathetic:

Six people signed up for Obamacare the first day. There were seven Police Academy movies. More demand for Police Academy than ObamaCare?

The Rice Owls will have more wins this football season than Obamacare had first day signups.

Only six people signed up for Obamacare on its launch. Even the Heaven's Gate cult managed to convince 39 people.

Man. Talk about perspective.
