I’ll take a stab at it:
That famous headline declared him (Dewey) winner, but he wasn’t. They are claiming Arafat alive, but he isn’t.
Am I right? If I am do I win anything?
Is the decimal system named after him? I guess I don’t get it either. Hey Frank that’s not funny. Are you losing your powers? Perhaps the flu from earlier?
A quick infusion of some Zatoichi and HBO comedy specials should fix you good. (And have your mom give you some chicken soup for good measure.)
C’mon folks, that’s a danged funny middle name for him. I laughed.
My question is, When little Yassir Dewey Arafat did something he wasn’t supposed to, did his mom yell at him using his first, middle, and last name like my mom did?
Depending on how you took that last sentence,
A) No, my mom didn’t yell at Yassir Dewey Arafat when he was a kid. Although had she done so, maybe he would have turned out better.
B) No, my mom didn’t call me Yassir Dewey Arafat when she yelled at me. She used my name. And I turned out just fine (except for my poor grammatical skills and a compulsion to explain myself).
“YASSIR DEWEY ARAFAT, if I’ve told you once, I’ve told you a thousand times, stop extorting money from the neighbor kids! They all KNOW you’re not really going to get them a playground of their own!”
“YASSIR DEWEY ARAFAT, I told you twenty minutes ago to come wash up for dinner! STOP shooting at that Jewish kid, PUT the rifle down, and GET IN HERE! You can finish what you’re doing later!”
“YASSIR DEWEY ARAFAT, take that bomb belt off the dog THIS INSTANT! That’s one of the good bomb belts, and we’re saving them for our guests!”
If you’re really curious, here is his real name:
Mohammed Yasser Abdul-Ra’ouf Qudwa Al-Husseini
And for the record, he wasn’t even born in what was then called “Palestine.” He was born in Cairo, Egypt.
As for the name change, you know those cwazy arab muslims. Just can’t live with what they were given. %-?
“And for the record, he wasn’t even born in what was then called “Palestine.” He was born in Cairo, Egypt.”
…which is to say, “Greater Israel”. Bwah-hah-hah…
BTW, his middle name is “Thasmabebbe”.
I just remember years ago on Johnny Carson doing the Amazing Kreskin he held up the envelope and said “Yasser Arafat” and the question was: “The sound of Dolly Parton removing her bra.”
I always thought his middle name was “That’s mah baby! No, sir, I don’t mean maybe!” It has a nice ring, no? Yassir That’s mah baby! No, sir, I don’t mean maybe! Arafat
Frank, I think you need a “Fun Trivia” section on IMAO and need to start crankin’ them motha’s out! Prepare to see this message on the Killin’ Feriners one, too! Rock, rock on! I like to yell!!!
Hmmm…Thinking…..Okay, I don’t get it!

Read it. Left. Thought about it. Came back. Still don’t get it.
Am I now a liberal?!?!

You’d have to read what’s on his toe tag to be certain.
“baby killer”?
“Ugly”?
“Decomposing”?
“Do we arafat” I dn get it….
Mongo no like

Well, I’ll be damned.
Who’da thunk it?
Dewey Wins! Arafat’s Dead!
It’s the now he is now he isn’t news reporting like Ken N says.
Kerry Winning! Ooops, no Bush won!
Is his middle name Gillete? Schick? Irish Spring?
Dewey, the kid who eats paste. Naturally.
I thought his middle name was
IHateIsraelis… as in: (singing)
Yassir IHateIsraelis
No sir, I don’t mean maybe.
I thought it was Ibhab. Pronounced EEBOB.
C’mon folks, that’s a danged funny middle name for him. I laughed.

His Brothers Hewey and Lewey Arafat are really going to miss him.
right wing duck that is some funny stuff right there. Your my new personal hero.

Maybe it’s a pun: “Yes sir! Do we have it?”
“And for the record, he wasn’t even born in what was then called “Palestine.” He was born in Cairo, Egypt.”
…which is to say, “Greater Israel”. Bwah-hah-hah…
BTW, his middle name is “Thasmabebbe”.
I don’t get it either. On the bright side though: Arafat will die soon. I do hope it’s painful.
Yes Sir! Do we hear a fart?
At least that the best I can do with it.
Jason, Not bad!! I get it!
I just remember years ago on Johnny Carson doing the Amazing Kreskin he held up the envelope and said “Yasser Arafat” and the question was: “The sound of Dolly Parton removing her bra.”
I don’t think it’s Dewey. I think it’s Moore – “Yasser Moore Arafat”!
I always thought his middle name was “That’s mah baby! No, sir, I don’t mean maybe!” It has a nice ring, no? Yassir That’s mah baby! No, sir, I don’t mean maybe! Arafat
