senator coburn will object. he has let me know that he will object and, unfortunately, because of personal reasons he's not able to be here today. so out of respect for the process of the senate and out of courtesy, i will not be asking for that unanimous consent now, but i will be asking for it early next week. and just to be clear, it will be a unanimous consent to build these 27 clinics based on the house vote without this bill going back to the house, going straight to the president's desk for signature by the president. the offset that the senator from louisiana offered is a bogus offset. we have a letter from c.b.o. that i want to read into the record. the senator, junior senator from louisiana offered an offset to raise the -- supposedly raise the $1.6 billion that would pay for this. this is from c.b.o. analysis. it says -- "based on preliminary estimates of the amendment offered by senator vitter, based on the information of the department of defense and the department of veterans' affairs and their cur

we had senators mccain and coburn tweeting how competent she is. think the fact of the matter is people are always going to look for an excuse to be critical. the real fact is that this is good timing for kathleen sebelius. there's no one more competent and ready for this job than sylvia. we would hope for a swift confirmation. >> are those attacks and criticism, i would assume it's something you have gotten used to. it comes with everything else. >> it does. i think part of this comes from the president setting the tone at the top. his view is do take the long view. remind yourself every single day who we're there to serve. that's the american people. so if you keep that focus and the rest of it you just have to let it roll off and kathleen is really good. she knew it was going to be tough. the fact of the matter is how many presidents dfr president obama tried to get sensible affordable care act passed. so she knew there would be heat that goes along with it, but she's tough and strong and she's really focused on what's important. >> i happen to

senator tom coburn joins us. nice to see you sir. >> nice to see you, greta. >> i thought that was a swipe at some of you and your colleagues. you come out with a report called prognosis. as i understand reading the report is that you predicted some things and now a while ago and now you are trying to see if your predictions were right. one of which let's talk healthcare costs. you predicted they would go up. >> yeah. and if you look at the average new insurance policy, it's going to cost 40% more that than it did last year. that includes higher deductibles and higher costs for a policy that's not like the one you h and not -- you don't like it as well. doesn't give you the same access that you had. so, we know the costs are going to go up. and we know the average, and as a matter of fact, we had the head of the cleveland clinic said three quarters of the people who lost their insurance are actually going to get insurance that they don't want. >> if you listen to president obama today, it sounded like the greates

seven senators are retiring or resigning, in the case of coburn, who will leave before the second terms up. a quarter of the senate committees are losing their chairman. five committee chairs or ranking members are calling it quits. michigan's carl levin is leaving after six terms. jay rockefeller, out after five. iowa's tom harken, also leaving. south dakota's tim johnson, putting down the banking committee's powerful gavel. georgia's chambliss is also stepping down. with three members resigning the seats already and the death of new jersey's frank lautenberg, means the senate is experiencing its largest turnover in 40 years. only 28 members of the current senate were in office before 2000, and that includes dan coates who served in the '80s and '90s, and then returned to the senate after the 2010 elections. next year, after levin, harkin, rockefeller leave, the number will be down to 24. the last members of what is a steadily shrinking old guard. and again, the idea of having a committy gavel anymore not the same motivation, because guess what, leadership runs everything, and these c

guests gathered his people at c-span only remember there was this bird hatched coburn proposal because no one else that they are -- the day after it got announced asserted. part of the reason it disappeared is because it is a proposal that is bad for the average american. i did a column in the new york times story said all right, let's take their proposal if you're the 28% income tax bracket, that proposal needs $1500 additional tax exemption, not something that most americans want to run out in due to get the same old insurance. so it is not a good deal for the average american. this is what i can't get. the core of the obamacare proposal in terms of access to the exchanges will have a marketplace. private insurance are going to offer them compete in four tiers. people are going to have subsidies and individual consumers will decide which insurance product they want that fits best with their need to and the hudson incentive to have cheaper plants. that sounds very republican to me. it sounds very bipartisan. very market oriented. what happened here is the democrats said look, republic

coburn: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from oklahoma. mr.coburn: i wanted to spend some time today talking about the bill that's on the floor. i want to thank my colleagues from both oregon and from virginia. i've enjoyed working with them. the bill we have on the floor is one of the reasons why i'm leaving congress at the end of this year. because here's -- and here's why the american people are disgusted with us. we're going to put off to tomorrow what the we should be g today. we should be fix this go probl problem -- we should be fixing this problem instead of delaying the problem. i concur a lot with what my colleague from virginia said. but the fact is, is there's no courage, there's no guts, there's no intention to actions to do what is the best thing in the long term for this country in this body anymore. so we have a bill that comes to us. i appreciate the fact the chairman wants to try to fix it. but if you vote for this bill that's on the floor today, you're part of the problem, you're not part of the solution. you are part of the
