Dem Senator Mary Landrieu Wants Americans to Pay Higher Taxes, Yet Still Owes $1,200 for Overdue Tax Penalties
February 19, 2013
"Do as I say, not as I do"... more Democrat hypocrisy.
Add Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu to the growing lineup of rich liberals who still owe taxes, but demand that American citizens pay more to the government.

From The Daily Caller - Democratic senator pushing higher taxes faces outstanding $1,200 tax penalty:
Just last week, Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu argued during a Capitol Hill hearing that the government needs more tax revenue.
But in a twist of hypocrisy, the Louisiana senator and her husband appear to have not yet paid $1,206.95 in tax penalties to the District of Columbia government on their Capitol Hill home, The Daily Caller has learned.
According to public records available online in the District of Columbia's "Real Property Assessment Database," the D.C. government has penalized Landrieu $1,003.33, plus $202.62 in interest, for 2012 taxes on her mansion on East Capitol Street. It is unclear what the penalty is for.
The online records indicate that the penalty was still outstanding as of Feb. 2. A spokeswoman for Landrieu did not immediately respond to an email from TheDC on Sunday asking for more information.
