Yes, if you file for bankrupcy as part of getting foreclosed, the tax 
bill is discharged.  But: that's very different (especially since the 
bankrupcy laws got "fixed" in the last few years) from "just walk 
away" -- which sounds like taking your dog to the forest and then 
getting back in the car and driving home.
