Having had Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner today deliver his stink bomb of a fiscal cliff wish list<\/a> to Capitol Hill, President Obama will take his campaign for higher taxes to the maker of Lincoln Logs and K’nex building toys tomorrow, according to CBS’s Mark Knoller.<\/p>\n\n\n

Not only is it the K’NEX factory that Obama is visiting tomorrow, it’s also the Tinkertoy AND the Angry Bird Building Sets factory!<\/p>\n
