Funny how other past presidents are called former Presidents, but abc calls Bush, ex-president.

There was an unwritten journalistic rule that only Nixon was allowed to be called an ex-president since he resigned in disgrace. Clearly that rule doens’t apply anymore.

Since they rarely referred to him as President when he was, it is odd they now admit he was one.

Former vs. Ex -- something like the former Marine and Ex-Marine I wonder.
