Blog Guy, a few days ago a reader tried to tell you about the well-known White Hat Conspiracy, a plot among prominent people who wear white hats to identify themselves to each other.
You basically made fun of the person. Implied he was a goofball and a nutjob.
Well, you’ll stop laughing after you see this photo of Madonna taken this week.
Also, look at legendary boxer Jake “Raging Bull” LaMotta, including one of him with his white hat. You can’t deny a conspiracy now, can you, Blog Guy?
Oh my God, how could I have been so blind?
You’re right, of course! Because if I were involved in some kind of nefarious plot, then Madonna and Jake LaMotta are the EXACT two people I’d wanna be following!
Yep, old Jake is running the White Hat Conspiracy, as sure as Barack Obama was born in Luxembourg!
And by the way, from the look of that shirtless picture, there’s another article of clothing that Jake may wanna consider wearing. It also comes in white.

Come on! How about a strategically placed bar across the offensive parts of that lower photo.
- Posted by BillI’d like to help you out, Bill, but the rules I go by are simple.
If there’s something in a photo that readers might want to see, I cover it up. If there’s something they have no desire to see and which might actually make them go blind, I go ahead and show it.
Your call is important to us.

This post was mentioned on Twitter by ebusinessbpo: Conspiracy, or just Raging Bull? http://bit.ly/3Jk0PV...
- Posted by uberVU - social commentsRobert, you can try an be ironic about the conspiracy, but the fact that Madonna is giving orders to the troops by speaking into the concealed mouthpiece in her white Stetson should make you think twice about it.
And, obviously, the fact that ‘Raging Bull” LaMotta is featured as one of the salient leaders is obviously a well thought out way to deflect attention, duh!!
Not very developed in the paranoia department, are we?
- Posted by MNo M, why should that be different from any other department?
- Posted by Robert BaslerOh! Oh! I know what the other item is!!
- Posted by It'sOntheCeilingIt’s a wet t-shirt, isn’t it??
By the way, wasn’t Jake LaMotta nominated to be on one of the infamous death panels? …and you thought there wasn’t such a thing as the white hat conspiracy!!
- Posted by MBy the way, I was reviewing your older posts, and came across the one with the key connection to the conspiracy theory. You know the one, the one on Ben Carthright coming to the White House… or was it Ken Salazar? I’m a little confused… In any case, i’ve proven my point: white hats and death panels are very closely related, and the fact that Obama’s Usbek birth certificate hasn’t popped up is irrefutable proof of it!
- Posted by MJust HOW MANY birth ceritificates does Obama have???
- Posted by Shra[...] Readers pointed out photos of everybody from Brad Pitt and the Dalai Lama to Madonna and boxer Jake “Raging Bull” LaMotta, and I poked fun at their theories. [...]
