During the first four years of the Obama administration, his Republican opposition used the filibuster a record number of times. Sources vary, but most agree it more than 125 times, and some sources say it was as much as 200 times.

How many Republican filibusters during Obama administration?

More than two hundred at this point (November 2012). By most objective accounts, this is a record amount, and made all the more puzzling since the Republicans have been using the filibuster to slow down or stop routine procedures they used to favor under President Bush.

How many current national administrations were formed under Obama's administration?

I am not sure I understand this question. The members of the president's team (his cabinet, his advisers, etc.) are considered part of his administration; but there are no other presidents and thus, the only administration is the one led by the president. That said, there are often new agencies and bureaus that are created. For example, there is a new Consumer Protection Bureau that is now in operation under the Obama administration.
