GOP's 2 plans-Ruin America in January and Ruin America later

With the news that Speaker Boehner's plan to get stop America from going off the fiscal cliff is to lock in all the Bush-tax cut rates, including the top 2%, it has become apparent that the GOP has two plans for America. There is one GOP group, considered reckless and truly conservative by some, whose plan is to give nothing to the President, refuse to compromise at all, and let the country go off the fiscal cliff. This would ensure that the economy loses what little steam it has, and would start the country down another recession. Then there is another GOP group, a group most consider well-thinking and moderate, who think that Boehner should give into the President on the tax question. But their plan is simply to refuse to raise the debt ceiling in February or March, ruining the country's credit rating and defaulting on the country's debts  This would start the country down a path toward another depression.

So, the GOP has two plans for America. One of the plans, which is considered reckless, is to refuse to compromise with the President and it starts the country down the path to another recession. The other plan, which is seen as moderate, gives the President a small victory now but refuses to pay bills starting later in the year, starting the country down a path to a depression. Great ideas, GOP: Ruin the country in January, or ruin the country later in the year.
