Why such low reaction to "Top 10 Conservative Idiots"? [View all]

I mean really, the Sunday LOLCats does a lot better (and is one of my favorites).

The Top 10 Conservative Idiots should get more support than it does. It didn't get enough recs to get past 1 star, or enough replies to get kicked even once.

So what gives? Is Monday morning a bad time to post this? Is it being taken for granted? Any ideas?

So take a look if you missed it. This is a high quality effort and a pretty good read too.
