All this for France?

No, “all this” for any state dinner at the White House.

Think of all the people who never got a dinner....

Joseph Cotten, who said, “You know how I got my name? Sammy Davis picked it for me.” Never got a dinner!

Ben Hur, who said to his sister Ben Him, “We’d better swap names before they start calling me Ben Gay!” Never got a dinner!

Uncle Remus, who said to Uncle Ben, “You’re a credit to your rice.” Never got a dinner!

Crispus Attucks, who said, “Don’t shoot till you see the whites!” Never got a dinner!

Dean Martin’s great-great-uncle, Ebenezer Martin, who said to Eli Whitney, “I see the cotton, but where’s the gin?” Never got a dinner!

Eve, who asked Adam, “Does this fig leaf make me look fat?” Never got a dinner! (Got an apple, but never got a dinner.)

Joe Torre, who switched to first base because he didn’t want to go through life as Chicken Catcher Torre. Never got a dinner!

Henry Ford, who despite his immense wealth never owned a Cadillac. Never got a dinner!

Sophia Loren, whose new baby asked her, “Is all that for me?” Never got a dinner!

Adam, who said to Eve, “What do you mean you have nothing to wear?” Never got a dinner!

Donald Trump’s mother, who said, “Donnie! Stop playing Monopoly and get in that barber’s chair! “ Never got a dinner!

The captain of the Titanic, who said to room service, “Who sent for all this ice?” Never got a dinner!

Queen Elizabeth, who said, “Not now, I’m on the throne.” Never got a dinner!

Abraham Lincoln, who said, “A house divided... is a condominium.” Never got a dinner!

J. Paul Getty, who still hasn’t been buried - they keep finding oil! Never got a dinner!
