You can not get Swine Flu by eating the meat of pigs (pork) when it is properly handled and cooked as usual. The virus is destroyed (inactivated) at normal cooking temperatures of 167-212°F (75-100°C).
Currently the cases of swine flu A-H1N1/09 are being passed from human to human, the transfer from pigs to humans is much more rare, although that is how the new virus originally developed. See the related question below for What Caused the 2009 Swine Flu.

Can you get Swine Flu from raising a pig?
Yes, the original swine flu (the flu that pigs got) began to be crossed into humans (infrequently) even before the Novel H1N1 influenza strain mutated and started to infect people. Farmers and young people who raise and show pigs at agricultural evens spend time in close contact with the pigs and in so doing are capable of catching the original H1N1 virus from them. Now with the Pandemic Swine Flu, it is also possible to give and get that strain of influenza to and from the pigs.
