My guess would be the title.
While she had no regrets about throwing the lever to douse her husband's mistress in molten gold, Blanche did feel a pang of conscience for the innocent bystanders whose proximity had caused them to suffer gilt by association.

Given that members of TITO worked to kick Vandoosa out of there ourselves, the opinion of the 10000 Islands is to keep the original condemnation and vote AGAINST this disingenuous repeal.

I highly suggest that you actually read my resolution. Try clicking "Alternate World History", too.

Because many of us aren't going to just idly sit by and let the [expletives deleted] World Assembly steal Vandoosa's hard-earned Condemnation Award.

The text of the United States Declaration of Independence says that the U.S. is currently at odds with Great Britain. But right now, they're not at war! So the whole Declaration is a lie and must be repealed immediately! :p
(i.e. calling him the current delegate in the resolution is not a reason for repeal...)

Vandoosa has never been the delegate of Alternate World History. Also, the DoI is a historical document, not a legal one.

"Repeal "Condemn Vandoosa"" was defeated 12,856 votes to 4,730.

I won't pretend that this was anything but a landslide failure for this resolution. In any case, thank you to everyone who approved and voted for this repeal.
