Loony Left's pressure on Chidambaram's budget

As the date of the Union Budget draws near, I wonder what the fuss is about the pressure being put on the Finance Minister by the UPA's Communist comrades. It must be pretty obvious to everyone that since CMP (Common Minimum Programme) is nothing but an anagram of CPM (Communist Party, Marxist), they are bound to flex their muscles.

The Communists are enjoying power without accountability, in much the same way as the RSS did during the NDA government's tenure. The Left front opposes FDI in various spheres/industries/sections of the economy as long as it is not the chairmanship of the UPA. They should either join the government or oppose it. They cannot oppose it from inside and support it from outside. Navjot Sidhu would have rightly said, "You cannot run with the hare and hunt with the hounds".
