What? No eggs?

By Dave Greber | Tuesday, October 7, 2008, 07:48 AM

Apparently, some guy from Georgia thought it would be funny to send a mysterious package to Congressman John Boehner’s office this week.

The grease-stained letter posed no immediate threat to Boehner or his staff, despite the fact his West Chester office was evacuated. (No immediate threat, unless you have extremely high cholesterol.) It was, after all, just bacon.

Here’s the story.

According to Boehner’s spokeswoman, the meat was meant to symbolize pork barrel spending, for which the sender believes Boehner is at least partially responsible.

There are no suspects at this time.

The package was sent in the wake of the past two weeks’ up and down (mostly down) stock market that responded to the nation’s $700 billion Wall Street bailout.

Thoughts on this? Much ado about nothing? Or is a threat a threat?
