Less than 10%.. So do the math. The tea party can not hold up anything ever on anything being voted on if the rest of the government see's fit to do something.

I am keeping it in perspective. Obama only had the house for 2 years. He has had the Senate for 6 years. Meanwhile he's had 4 years of a Republican controlled House that's only goal is to make sure he can't get anything done.
Now compare that to Bush Jr.. He had 8 years in the White House, 6 years with control of the House and 4 years with control of the Senate. Yet he didn't cut spending and he doubled the national debt.
So tell me how is Obama supposed to work with the Tea Party whom even the Republicans can't control and are on the verge of tearing their own party apart? Bush couldn't even do it with full control of everything and you guys expect Obama to do it when he's up against Tea Party members that won't even work with their own party.
Look I don't think Obama is the Messiah, and I don't think all Republicans are all evil, but the Tea Party is fucking up this country, republicans can't even work with them anymore.. So how could Obama possibly have a chance?
