Since they are both in Hawaii right now, I think it likely. It would be the classy thing to do, to recognize that political adversaries need not hate each other, or be mortal enemies. It would also be interesting to see how Limbaugh would respond.

1. No, why the hell should he? He should simply ignore him.
Limbaugh isn't fit to wipe President Obama's shoes.

4. If he doesn't he misses a golden opportunity to be (chuckle) the bigger person.
He should do it. It would be great P.R. for him.

10. I think he will call him

It would be hard for me to do it without saying ######## to him but I believe he should/will make the call -

17. I agree there is no better way to humiliate your enemies than to turn
the other cheek. It shows who is the better person.

If he does, he should be nominated for sainthood

12. Wtf? It's not like he's a powerful politician or foreign dignitary
He's a walking/talking septic tank. Why legitimize him?

13. I'd like to see them playing a round of golf together for New Year's Day!
It would do wonders to unite the country for a new year.

15. he's not a political adversary
he's a big fat drug addicted pedophile with a big mouth that makes his money off Obama's political adversaries.

18. He and Pelosi should pay Rush a visit and wish him well. Rush wouldn't know what to do.

20. Rusty Limpdick isn't worthy of a call from the POTUS.
He's not a political adversary. He's an entertainer. And a bad one at that.

21. Interesting thought.
Imagine the President showing up at the hospital, with news camera crews, to wish him a speedy recovery. Would Limbaugh be anything but gracious, and would that on-camera graciousness hurt him in the eyes of his fans?

I'm not saying it would, or even should, happen but it's interesting to speculate.
