Boehner On The Receiving End Of Pork

By Ryan Grim

(The Politico)  Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), who has made it a point never to request earmarks for his home district, nevertheless found himself on the receiving end of an apparent prank, the AP is reporting. 

Boehner's West Chester, Ohio office was cleared out over a suspicious package postmarked from Georgia, leaking a greasy substance, that turned out to be full of bacon. 

A note came along with the gift, but police wouldn't share its contents.
