I’ve never heard or heard of any such opinion inferred or spoken by Pres. George Bush.
On the other hand, Newt Gingrich DID say that.

RUSH: Yesterday on this program, one of the two monologues that people were talking about all day was the state of conservatism and where it’s headed.
I bounced off a comment made by Newt Gingrich on the George Stephanopoulos ABC show on Sunday in which he said that the Reagan era is over.
Newt, of course, heard about it, sent me a note, “Hey, I want to come on and talk about this.”
He was on Fox & Friends this morning, and they portrayed this, Steve Doocy and his gang portrayed this as a feud between Newt Gingrich and me. I don’t think it’s a feud, ladies and gentlemen, but I want to talk to him about this.
We never hear the libs say that the FDR era is over. We never hear the libs say that that the Teddy Roosevelt era is over. We never hear anybody say the Churchill era is over. We never hear that the Great Society is over and the New Deal era is over. We never hear that. The Dems don’t do this to themselves.
Newt clarified this morning, by the way, he said, “Look, I’m all for conservatism,” but he didn’t say this on Sunday.

The era of Newt was over when he sat on the couch with Pelosi.
As for Jeb Bush, I have two words: Terry Schiavo.
The Bushes have not enough to this country, both good and bad. They need to retire gracefully and quietly.
