(CBS News) WASHINGTON - For 31 days now, the Obama administration has been telling us that Americans by the millions are visiting the new health insurance website, despite all its problems.
But no one in the administration has been willing to tell us how many policies have been purchased, and this may be the reason: CBS News has learned enrollments got off to an incredibly slow start.
Early enrollment figures are contained in notes from twice-a-day "war room" meetings convened within the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services after the website failed on Oct. 1. They were turned over in response to a document request from the House Oversight Committee.
The website launched on a Tuesday. Publicly, the government said there were 4.7 million unique visits in the first 24 hours. But at a meeting Wednesday morning, the war room notes say "six enrollments have occurred so far."

sebilius says she doesn’t have the numbers from healthcare.gov. do we even need to speculate if she’s telling the truth. these people are amazing. in the entire history of the republic.
Six - and more than 30,000 needed per day. LOL Seem to be an EPIC FAIL.
The entire Obamacare scheme is a fraud perpetuated against the American People.
Impeach-Investigate-Indict-Imprison.....
Meghan Kelly had 6 Fox News employees stand on her set while she ridiculed these pitiful numbers. I doubt even FReepers could have come up with a better way of embarrassing Obama. 6!!!
at six per day and a goal of 7 million they will reach their goal in 3,196 years
Yeh. Anyway you interpret it, it’s still an EPIC FAIL!
No guarantee those 6 actually are even aware or got what they wanted.
Failure: Liberal policies forced upon the Americans.
