I'm so, so, so sorry: A Baby Boomer apologizes on behalf of his generation
While I don't agree with all his points, he does try to spread the blame across party lines. He also ignores Radical Islam as a big problem, but all in all, it's a good read.
As a Gen X'er, I think my generation will take most of the blame 20-30 years from now for letting the boomers get away with their plans. We were the next generation, and we were too cynical to do anything about it.
Plus the boomers will be dead, and the Millenials and the next two generations will need someone to blame

So let’s review the bidding. My generation has spent its inheritance, beggared its kids, spiked the nation’s education infrastructure, and is at risk of substituting one type of racism for another in the interest of ending racism. On one side of the political ledger we’ve gifted the country Donald Trump, George W. Bush, Chris Christie and Rick Perry (today’s secretary of energy, for those of you without a scorecard). On the other, Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid (he’s retired but he still deserves honorable mention), Blago (same although in prison) and Maxine Waters. And things are no better in the Old World.
