The Fed has a role to play but over-regulation in real estate and credit/finance were the larger causes. Bush did speak up a few times about the looming crisis but was ignored by Congress. However, as president, he could've done a heck of a lot more than just speaking.

Depends what you're judging people on. If it's who killed the most/responsible for the most deaths, then maybe the Prophet Mohammad, blessed be his name. If it's who accomplished the least, the some nameless bum in Any town, U.S.A. If it's the most unpleasant, then my vote is for Perez Hilton...
