Well actually, it was the Democrats that presented most of the opposition against the Civil Rights Act.How come the republican party oppose every new piece of legislation?*edit - socialist legislation.



"Did the republicans oppose social security, medicare, civil rights, etc.."



the fact that you are posing this as a question leads me to believe that you have no idea what you are talking about.
Because every piece of legislation proposed is CRAP.



And this OBAMACARE is THE WORST.



It was DIFFERENT before FOX when Democrats could SLIP things through...



Now when they do... it's on our radar.How come the republican party oppose every new piece of legislation?Certainly not civil rights. The Civil Rights Act that was signed by Johnson was legislation written by Eisenhower years earlier. Democrats fought tooth and nail against it when it was proposed by Eisenhower and the final vote showed more Republican supporters than Democrats.



They did fight against Social Security and Medicare and obviously for good reason. Both are going broke and will bankrupt our country if something is not done to fix the problem.How come the republican party oppose every new piece of legislation?
Poo P is right. A number of Democrats were against the Civil Rights Act of the 60s, but what type of Democrats were they? They were Conservative Democrats that no longer support the Democratic Party. They are Republicans now.



Because of Civil Rights legislation being passed, the Democrats lost the South as supporters of the Party.
Not real big on links to back up your claims are you ! You are wrong they don't ! With this Congress you better be glad they are trying to protect us from a bunch of raving lunatics !How come the republican party oppose every new piece of legislation?
Lately, our congress is pushing bad bills without due process in an effort to say they made progress and look good to their base. The bills should be debated and given the amount of debt they will force us to carry, should not be rushed through. Any time someone is trying to get you to "Buy Now" you should step back and think it through. Our President does not agree.
The Republicans oppose every new piece of legislation during a Democrat-controlled Congress for the same reason the Democrats oppose every new piece of legislation during the Republican Congress. It's what we pay them to do. It is their jobs to do it.



By the way, the Republicans INTRODUCED the Civil Rights bill. Many ended up voting against all the pork the Democrats added, and it produced the exact result Johnson wanted, which was to hijack it, sign it and become the big "Civil Rights" President.
Republicans oppose legislation because it is being written by left wing liberal loonies. All of the legislation coming from the liberal side is bad news for everyone. Democrats are in control, so they don't let Republicans submit legislation. Where have you been?



Republicans voted in civil rights legislation, and many Democrats opposed it.



Social Security and Medicare are two bad examples of socialism. The sin of SS was committed by Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat liberal. Medicare was the goof ball idea of Lyndon Johnson, another liberal Democrat.



Before you criticize, do some basic research.
