No, it is not the Republicans, not this time.
First check out this video via NBCNews.com, where a Republican and a Democrat actually agree on a bunch of things:

Did you watch the video? Sounds great and nice doesn’t it? Well, someone needs to give this woman the Memo:
Via the Hill, another Democratic Party instance of one hand, not knowing with the other is doing:
Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) confirmed Thursday that she will seek the chairmanship of the Senate Budget Committee next year but told The Hill that she cannot commit to doing a budget.
This opens up the possibility that Senate Democrats will avoiding passing a budget resolution for the fourth year in a row.
The last time the Senate passed a standalone budget resolution was in 2009. This past year, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said a budget was not necessary because the top-line spending number for appropriations was set in the August 2011 debt-ceiling deal.
Murray said that an agreement to avoid the “fiscal cliff,” the looming $600 billion in tax increases and spending cuts set to strike in January, could preclude having to pass a Senate budget next year.
“I am committed to working with our committee and with our Congress to put a budget in place but there are a lot of questions in front of us: What happens in the next two weeks, six weeks, year? Does the White House and the leadership come together on some solution to the budget that we have right now that precludes a budget being written next year?” she said. “I have no idea.”
Honestly, how the heck hard is it to pass a budget? I mean, everyone else in America has to live on a budget? You do, I do, everyone does! But yet, the Democrats, who are supposed to be the enlightened ones, over us knuckle-dragging Conservatives (Chuckle, snicker, grin) — cannot even pass a simple budget? Unbelievable.
But yet, we the Conservatives are the stupid party; we are the ones who believe in fiscal restraint and happen to believe in budgets and responsibility. But yet, the Democrats cannot even manage to pass a budget. As some idiot troll, who came here to insult me said, “It’s a Obama world!” Yeah, it is a Obama world alright; and you idiot Democrats now own this mess, no more blaming it on your predecessors anymore. You own it, now stand at the helm and watch as America goes in the abyss and be proud of what you did.
The Weimar Republic would be proud — very proud.
