Another member of the Obama administration has joined the long, distinguished list of Democrat tax deadbeats. This time it’s the Honorable Eric Holder, Attorney General of the United States, who talks the talk, but walks out when the bill arrives.

Attorney General Eric Holder has just been so darn busy battling terrorists and fighting voter fraud that he completely forgot to pay those darn taxes

The New York Post has the deadbeat details:

US Attorney General Eric Holder and his brother failed to pay the property taxes on their childhood home in Queens, which they inherited last August after their mother died, The Post has learned.

And because their ailing mom, Miriam, was already behind on two quarterly tax bills when she succumbed to illness on Aug. 13, the charges went unpaid for more than a year — growing to $4,146.

It wasn’t until The Post confronted Holder last week about the delinquency that he and younger brother William Holder finally paid up Friday, including $73.14 in interest.

The siblings “weren’t aware of the initial missed payments, which happened in the last months of their mother’s life when she was battling illness,” said a Holder spokesman.

The subsequent unpaid bills “occurred during a time period in which the disposition of the estate is still being resolved,” said Department of Justice spokesman Matthew Miller.

“They just weren’t aware.” Next time the IRS comes after you for non-payment of your taxes, we suggest that you simply invoke the Holder defense and tell them that “you just weren’t aware.”
