And yet again

So, for the third day in a row we have an adjournment. How long can this be kept up. Angry in the Great White North speculates that it may not be as long as we think.

With news of an NDP pairing there is no way for the Liberals to pass the vote.

...the NDP is offering to have one of its MPs sit out a vote on the budget next week to even the odds because a Tory MP who is ill won't be able to make it.

NDP MP Ed Broadbent says he will sit out and the Tories say they're happy to accept the offer.

The Liberals can only hope to delay to Thursday to get the Conservatives to vote against the budget. But if there are 6 adjournments in a row will anyone care why the Government was finally put down?

Update: 3 is enough. MP Stephen Harper has committed to no further obstruction provided their is a budget vote on Thursday.
