 I spend a Distrib-u-Matic card to make Fix Veto distributable.

I believe I had an outstanding intent to make this distributable
without objection which was not objected to. I really should mark
these things because I seem to forget every intent I make. :/

 I intend, without /three/ objections, to make this proposal

Umm, how?

 Actually, I intend, without three objections, to distribute it. May as
 well go the whole way.

Is this even possible? Does the permitted in the sentence if no
other player is permitted to distribute a proposal, anyone can without
three objections mean can or may?

It means MAY, but combined with A player specifically permitted by
the Rules to distribute a Proposal CAN distribute, it's both.

 II-2 is unreasonable for a proposal that replaces a rule with the
 exact text it had very recently.  This required no original thought
 whatsoever.
