Underwent emergency surgery in 1986 at Georgetown University Hospital and had his colon removed.

"It didn't take guts to go public with ulcerative colitis; it took losing them," states a new public service announcement for CCFA featuring Bush, whose surgery resulted in an ostomy -- an opening in the abdomen surgically created for the passage of waste. Like many of America's nearly one million ostomates, Bush wears a pouch attached to his body at the opening to collect waste.

February 2000 quip, reported in U.S. News & World Report: "That great sucking sound you hear is the sound of the media's lips coming off John McCain's ass."

In August 2000, Marvin gushed to a CBS interviewer: "I am a big Survivor fan. I'll tell you, I got drawn into that show pretty earlier because I happened to know one of the people." Evidently he met B.B. at a Republican Party function, who had been kicked off the island on week two.

On the 30 October 2000 episode of the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, older brother George W. Bush revealed that Marvin "actually urinated in a steam iron one time. [...] Sorry, Marv, about that." Marvin's reaction? "He didn't respond honestly. [...] He dove right in and assaulted his younger brother -- which is shameful. What he forgot to mention was that I was 5 years old when I did it. Some of my friends thought I was some 23-year-old who had a problem. But this is what happens to you when you have three older brothers who are constantly jumping on you."
