As we watch the debacle that is the Obamacare rollout, we are hearing all sorts of voices cast blame.

The blame game is so farcical and counterfactual that it would be amusing, were it not for the seriousness of the problem.

There are some Democrats who blame the Republicans for the mess. They claim the “pressure” that the Republicans generated caused mistakes. It is laughable, of course.

However, there is at least one Republican who shares as much responsibility as the administration.

Oddly enough, the Republican who is responsible for vast amounts of Americans who have lost their insurance coverage has not uttered a peep. She has stayed remarkably silent about the chaos which her actions have perpetrated on the American people.

The Republican woman I am referring to is Saint U.S. Sen. Olympia Snowe, who voted the disaster that is Obamacare out of her Senate committee.

Despite the denials of her fanboys and fangirls, it required a bipartisan vote — and Sen. Snowe was the deciding vote.

With her actions, she unleashed the abomination of a bill into a highly partisan, Democrat controlled Senate and House. With her experience in D.C., she surely knew what the outcome would be to her actions. Republicans were supposed to forgive her for this because she voted against it on the Senate floor.

Of course, this idea was rather scuppered when President Obama mentioned in a press conference how “instrumental” Sen. Snowe had been in getting the bill passed.

He hung a millstone around her career like the one on the causeway near where I live — and pushed her off the bridge.

I believe Sen. Snowe owes those who have lost their insurance and apology for her vote, which was the catalyst to getting the Obamacare disaster moving.

She may no longer be in the Senate, but it was by her actions the health care system is in the mess it is right now.

She tossed a firebomb into the lives of millions of Americans and then ran away so she didn’t have to take responsibility for her actions.

I rather doubt Snowe will have the moral courage to apologize for what she did that fateful day. Instead, she is busy on her whine and cheese tour of the country, painting herself as a martyr to bipartisanship.
