Revoting, then:

Haiku is fun.
A vote for abolishment
is terrorism.
(Nay for haiku abolishment)

This is intended
as political; strawmen
are mandatory.
(Nay for tormenting abolishment)

Glory to the Party Chairman!

13. Henceforth, in the interest of reducing bureaucratic overhead, all future rules and regulations, excluding those already written, shall be written, in legalese; abolishing prior regulations, as they were deemed needlessly hindering to the Bureaucracy, requiring haikus, and ineffectual language, which rendered the public discourse unwieldy.

I should probably have my head checked, because I find myself in complete agreement with Nikov.

In the Most High Name of Armok

To clarify I
Must explain to the foolish
Not all posts are rules

In the Most High Name of Armok

In Addition I
Declare the results of vote
striking haiku; nay

As such I must say
Haiku rules shall yet apply
To all posts not rules

Praise be to Armok, God of Blood
As the cherry blossoms
Are tumbled by the soft winds
My 'Yea' goes with them

Rule Breach Allegation;
Rule 5. 'Glory to the Party
Chairman' not centred.

Rule Breach Allegation;
Rule 7. 'All posts in Haiku Style'
Totally Ignored

Punishment: Rule 8
stricken from ledgers. All those
in favor or opposed?

9. Subsequent posts
Must break some rules-one at least
That has preceded

Glory to the Party Chairman

You nearly had me
But the rule to break some rules
was in a bad post

Your haiku had one
Too many syllables and
So I motion now

For it to be struck
As the new rule to break rules
Was not in effect

Glory to the Party Chairman!

In the Most High Name of Armok

As the frog jumps high,
I, in all sincerity,
To all rules vote Neigh.

I propose a law;
An awesome, brand-spanking-new
Regulation.

Binary Number
Zero one one one and one
Or sixteen less one:

15. The word "Rule"
Now and forever will be
Forbidden in posts.

Praise to Armok from
Whom blood flows out like a brook
Washing us poorly

Party Chairman Powers:
The Rule format is invalid
Try more Legalese

10. All new rules must not
End or Begin with the word
'All', or the word 'The'.

Glory to the Party Chairman

Your rules are not valid as they begin the words 'All', and 'The'.

They must follow the new rules.  'The' and 'All' are not allowed for the beginning or ending of new rules.

My side isn't invalid because i'm voting against the haiku rule.

There are no "all"s or "the"s anywhere in that quote!

I was talking about the rules I vetoed.  And also I refuse to use haikus when posting.
