taxes and bankruptcy

I have been considering bankruptcy for over a year. I just have way too much debt. I already know I qualify but have a question.
I already owe a few thousand dollars in taxes from last year and I know I will owe more for 2008. Are taxes cleared by a bankruptcy?

I think I read somewhere that it doesn`t count, but thought the law may have changed by now.
