Joseph C. Phillips had an interesting article tackling one of the most common myths the New Left pushes when it comes to conservatives:  the belief that conservatives hate change.

I don’t know how this label got started; either conservatives opposed the liberals’ wishes to increase government power in the ’30s and ’60s, or it is just another way to call the GOP a party of “old white men.”  All Republicans are not Conservative, and not all Conservatives are Republicans. I refer to myself as a Conservative in public because the GOP needs to revitalize their ideals.  The party needs a leader, and they don’t have one.  Although 41% or so the country identifies itself as conservative, only about 21% identify with the Republican Party.

Conservatives desire change:  tax reform, health care reform (just not Obamacare,) and basic limiting of the federal government’s power.

Who among us wouldn’t want the government to just leave us alone?
