Thats a solid gold tassel. laughter you can melt down that down, okay . And also, if you dont believe it, i also stole the gravy boat. cheers and applause folks, this was the state dinner to be invited to because it was in honor of french president and thoughtful croissant Francois Hollande. When last we dished on francois private life la la merde was hitting le fan because he had been caught stepping out on frances first lady, Valerie Trierweiler who hes not married to whos a second later actress julie gayet. So there was one big question hanging over this dinner. Who is going to be bring along as frances first lady . When you have a foreign guest, the first lady would be seated next to the spouse. As of late last night, organizers here at the white house hadnt even decided who would get that coveted seat, typically reserved for the visiting leaders spouse. Stephen so it all came down to who would be seated next to mrs. Obama. Well, lets see, theres the president and theres Francois Hollande and theres Michelle Obama and whos next to her . Its me cheers and applause ladies and gentlemen, im the first lady of france cheers and applause merci cheers and applause oh oh thank you merci oh merci, merci cest une grande honneur oh, those flowers were thrown very hard at my face. Okay. Let me get french here. Let me get french here. laughter ive got to smoke. And ive got to get my baguette. laughter and, of course, ive got to smoke my baguette. laughter no, i cant i cant get this thing started. Anyway. Nation, this is so much responsibility. Every first lady has her initiative. Michelle obama has nutrition and military families. Mine will be reviving the guillotine and finally bringing jean valjean to justice cheers and applause no free bread, you criminal but, nation, my new role as premier duh france will not impact the report. The show will now be made with more butter and my classic segments will be renamed tromper la mort, enumeration des menace, and coupe de chapeau remue du doigt. laughter folks, the spoel was ten days ago and america is still buzzing over the embarrassingly lopsided victory of bill oreilly over president obama. laughter everybodys talking about it, from bill oreilly on the Oreilly Factor to bill oreilly anywhere theres a camera. The whole country continues to digest my interview with president obama. I asked him the tough questions that nobody else no one has asked him. We asked you to grade my interview with president obama. laughter 44 get the interview an a. I tkpweurpb tee you that what he said on the road is now going to be the focus of congressional hearings. We estimated it was watched my more than a hundred million people, and thats just in the u. S. A. Hundreds of millions more seeing it on the worldwide net. Big. And pretty much Everybody Knows it. audience reacts . Stephen yes, folks, Everybody Knows on superbill sunday oreilly gave the interview of the decade in that he will be talking about it for the next ten years. cheers and applause and now and now folks cheers and applause a lot of oreilly fans here tonight. laughter and now papa bear is giving us all a chance to own a piece of history. My handwritten interview notes signed by me and president obama are being auctioned off. Nice unique historical item. This is the original. Obviously one of a kind. And we are auctioning it off, opening bid 10,000. audience reacts now, i know thats a lot of money but if you would like a beautiful replica of the signed notes it can be yours for a 20 donation to the fisher house. Stephen yes, in an historic move bills historically auctioning off the historic notes of his historic interview. laughter and the winner will then possess evidence of bills meticulous preparation. From Health Care Web site . To football . To how liberal . Most liberal . To fox news cheers and applause folks, that last one is just a reminder in case bill forgets where he works. laughter plus, these notes were signed by the president but more importantly they were signed by bill oreilly everything this man touches is historic. And thats why tonight im excited to announce that im auctioning my historic bill oreilly artifact. You see, folks, back in 2007 on an historic night i appeared on the factor and bill came on the report. Historians can debate who came out on top, but only one of us came away with the w the others microwave obvious. laughter and applause folks, what you are looking at cheers and applause folks, what you are looking at here is the actual microwave oven i stole from bill oreillys green room. cheers and applause i had to, folks, because this carousel right here . Technically makes this a spin zone. Thats against the oreilly constitution. Folks, this is the most historically important journalistic microwave since 1977s defrost nixon. laughter of course, im a good guy so all proceeds of the microwave oven will go to benefit the Yellow Ribbon fund which helps injured Service Members and their families. I was going to take bills queue and opening the bidding at 10,000 but after research on ebay i found most sixyearold micrmicrowaves go for about 40 bucks. laughter however, this one was used by bill oreilly himself so well start the bidding at 43. cheers and applause which is a bargain which is a bargain when you consider that the keypad on this thing contains more words than bills entire interview notes. laughter and applause plus, the microwave will be signed by me and by bill oreilly if he signs it. laughter please sign it, bill, its for the troops and their families. Oh, and if the auction is too rich for your blood, for 10 you can buy a xeroxed copy cheers and applause of an actual iphone picture of the microwave. laughter everyone of these xeroxes is numbered and signed by you. laughter all right. Im also selling im selling pens. This is a pilot pen and it is still mostly full. laughter so if youve gotten a appreciation for history and or a hot pocket to cook, get those bids in today.

Why, you ask . The answer . Because shep. Kitty cat, meow, a thousand dollars. Snookis pregnant. Stephen folks, last night last night was not his only dramatic interpretation of a white house menu. He had been covering the president ial pantry for some time now. In fact, on the day of the state of the union he was invited to the white house for lunch and was the only one with the courage to ask the tough question are you gonna finish that roll . There is no better food on planet earth than what comes out of that white house kitchen. Here is the menu. They had winter lettuces with shaved vegetables. They had honeyed pecans in there. The other thing that came with this was a reggian know crisp and it turns out thats like a crack we are air holes in it and it takes like cheese. Man, i dont know what it was but the entree was dry aged piedmontese beef. What is that . Its from the piedmont region of italy. The ka fls are born fawn in color. It comes with a shallot jous, like an au jous. Im assuming thats an au jous that shallots have been infused in it. There were four pieces of piedmont ease beef. And root vegetables. What kind of root vegetables did they serve with that . laughter um little bitty pearl onions and what else came with it . I wrote it down. Radishes. I wrote it down. laughter squash, pearl onions and these terrific greens, i dont know what they were. This is what they served today. This is louie chardonnay from napa, a 2012.
