Robin Abcarian: That foul stench out of Santa Monica? A local weekly spreading malicious lies about Paul Pelosi

As you might expect, the first official reports about the Oct. 28 attack on Paul Pelosi in San Francisco were light on details.

But conspiracy theorists abhor a vacuum almost as much as Republicans abhor House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. As her 82-year-old husband fought for his life, and police tried to figure out what had happened, the crazies went to work.

One of the most odiferous takes wafted out of a seaside Southern California town known for its liberal politics and picturesque pier. How disappointing.
