Could Rush Limbaugh and Bill Maher unite? How about Rosie O'Donnell Elisabeth Hasselbeck? It would take a whole lot of strength to pull that off. Well, it just so happens Hulk Hogan might be up for the task.
According to a New York Post report, Hogan wants to unite America by bringing together famous people who are feuding. The "Hulkster" has reportedly signed on to be the spokesperson for something called, "The Official Uniting Towel Wave of America," his agent Darren Prince, told the newspaper.
Under the premise, Hogan will "pair up six personalities who have not seen eye-to-eye over the years and have them reunite next year on July 4, 2008 in Freedom, Pennsylvania, while thousands of people wave towels simultaneously," Prince said.
"If these two can unite for our country, don't you think we all can," screams the slogan the interesting, but weird, campaign.
Hulkamania will try to use its influence to get Rush Limbaugh and Bill Maher to make up as well as Rosie O'Donnell and her former "The View, co-star, Elisabeth Hasselbeck.
The Post reports that all proceeds from towel sales and sponsorship of the drive, which begins sometime in September, will be split up between each celebrity participant's charity.
The official website proclaims: 'Beginning at 9:00 PM ET and lasting 15 minutes, the first-ever simultaneous National Towel Wave™ will take place across our Great Nation. Millions of Proud Americans will wave their Official Uniting Towel of America™ in unison. This trademarked spectacle will be the largest unified occurrence of it's kind, EVER! This historic mega-event was created to symbolize America's ongoing passion for Peace, Unity and Freedom."
The site also features a countdown clock, counting down to the event.
Bill who?
This is the best idea since Sheryl Crow’s One Square of Toilet Paper campaign.
Well, this must rank highly among the dumbest of PR stunts in American history.
The WTC was bombed by Bush.
The 9-11 hijackers weren’t cowards.
Bush stole 2 elections.
How do you “debate” a crackpot? They are so far of the factual mark that differences of opinion about socialized medicine cannot even be started to be addressed.
I think I’m gonna cry/sarc
Seriously, stick to what you know. How about bodyslamming Rosie?
That I’d watch
Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes...
Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together - mass hysteria.
More feel-good nonsense.
Shades of..
“Can’t we (BELCH) all just get along”
- Rodney King.
This is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard of.
Unite around what? If one of the parties refuses to acknowledge the truth, what can you be unified about?
It never fails at FR, I think of a quote from a movie right before I read it on a thread.
I quit watching Fox because of this. I get bored with all the arguing and talking over each other.
Exactly 15 minutes of fame.
Not too many people could accomplish the feat of slamming her fat ass.

It appears that Thunderlips has lost his mind.
Then there are people like Hulk Hogan....
the Hulkster did slam Andre the Giant. I’d call it even
Roids at work again? Hulk is outta his mind!
LLS
I don’t think it’s a good idea — Bulk Hogan could go into a roidrage any second and bang his guest’s heads together.
Of course if he bangs Rosie’s and Bill Maher’s heads together, that’d be okay.
Unless we EVOLVE to a higher plane of existence by divine intervention OR can genetically alter human beings for passivity [taking away free will]....it will always be so!
Well, it’s hard to unite people when at least two of them are comedians who used their celebrity to parlay themselves into discussions about which they are ignorant and who add nothing to the debate versus someone like Rush who BECAME a celebrity because he was an expert on his subject matter and people want to hear what he says.
This would be fine if Rosie and Bill had any credibility.
All one needs to do is watch 5 minutes of the “hulkster’s” TV show and one quickly realizes the world of fantacy he lives in. He is essentially a pimp for his daughter and wife.
The “Huckster” is more like it. Another case of brain cells destoyed by steroids and slams to the mat.
I saw a couple episodes of that show. They had a big screen tv on the wall and it appeared to be showing porn. Whenever the camera caught it, they would blur part of the picture.
Limbaugh isn’t feuding with Maher.
Maher makes insane statements about Rush and Rush says, “Bill who?”.
Maher should be so fortunate, but Rush knows better than to give these loser lefties the attention they need.
“This is the best idea since Sheryl Crow’s One Square of Toilet Paper campaign”
ROTFLMAO!!
Not sure on that score....
Rosie might have old Andre by a few lbs. Her chins are deceptively heavy.
Aside from the obvious answer - money and TV time - why would these people have any reason to unite? There’s always a perception among some people that disagreements are caused by ignorance or misunderstandings - this perception is usually incorrect.
Maher is viciously dishonest. Why would anyone want to unite with him?
You don’t unite with people like that. You tune them out.
What is incredibly sad is that, should this actually take place, there is someone, somewhere who is ignorant enough to watch it.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck isn’t feuding with Rosie either
