Holy crap! More people support building a Death Star than signed up for Obamacare

Hattip to Ace for pointing me to this story, which helpfully puts Obamacare's success into perspective:
A petition to build a Death Star from the Star Wars universe received more support than people who were able to sign up for health insurance via healthcare.gov in October.
The petition, which received 34,435 signatures, demolished health care in signups, which was starkly lower at a mere 26,794. That’s a difference of 7,641.
In response to the Death Star petition, the White House actually took the time to write out a lengthy response entitled “This Isn’t the Petition You’re Looking For.” The 500-word response included such ironic statements as, “Why would we spend countless taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw…?” Take out “Death Star” and insert “health care law,” and you have something the President should have been asking himself several years ago. Except that his health care law has more than just “a” fundamental flaw. 
Yeah, Barry, this isn't the health care reform we were looking for, either.
