Mayor Jim Ireton Creates New Position For Close Friend Chris Demone As Salisbury's New PIO Officer

Christopher M. Demone
Public Information Officer

Your tax dollars/increases hard at work! More evidence that Liberals continue to GROW government rather than cutting back. 

Think about it. Does Salisbury actually need a PIO Officer?

Is that Neil and Bob?

I have already received 2 bogus Press Releases from Chris Demone. Everyone downtown knows that Chris Demone is good buddies with Jim Ireton and Chuck Cook.

Was this position advertised?

Was this position needed?

This is why we don't need Laura Mitchell running for the Wicomico County Council if she approved this worthless position.

Wow! You people in Salisbury are taking it just like Ireton does ! Talk about being screwed . These liberals steal from you and, continue to take your rights daily . yet you still elect them.

One worthless POS hires another worthless POS.

PIO ? Pull It Out - Sounds like Jim needs someone for that position.

I had a friend apply for that. Now I know the fix was in. Like when Donna (Conway contributor and Ireton friend) was given a job in the Mayor's office.

Can't believe all the racist homophobes that live in your little town. This is why your area will continue to be the crappy place it is. I feel sorry for you and your narrow minds.

Joe I just threw up in my mouth. What a shame the DEMS and Queens voted this dude in. I heard Ireton just passed a proclamation that when he passes he will be buried in city park. The stipulation is that he is buried with his butt sticking out of the ground so the kids have a place to park their bikes.

Great choice Mr. Mayor - POS was a drunk and drug addict all through school - been convicted of driving without a license - and foreclosure! Really great choice!

3:39. Your are wrong. I have known Chris before high school and he was not a drug addict or drunk. I didn't know you could get convicted for foreclosure. How many people affected by this economy have not had hard times? Hard times was because his child had cancer. Get over it. Anyway why is what someone did or didn't do in high school important?

3:39. get your facts straight. It was an expired license not without one or suspended. Big deal. Not that I care either way but damaging a person reputation with false information is wrong.

I don't really care for the dude but I do know he had to short sell his house because his kid had cancer. So if your going to attack him that is probably not something to attack him about.

Well, somebody has to give us a blow-by-blow account...

@5:36 you are correct sort of: he was charged with driving with an expired license then did not appear or pay the fine so said license was then suspended until he finally appeared in court and was found guilty! Get your facts straight as well

How could you possibly know that? I checked MD case search and there is nothing to bear that out. From what the state records show it was a ticket that Demone payed and it was over? Maybe I misinterpretted it?

Anonymous said...

this guy had fundraiser for his kid at unos in fruitland..... a lot of people came.... i think it was for his kid getting chemo? there was something about cancer and there were pictures of a little kid on peoples tshirts. i definitely reconize the guy from that night.

Demone is a good enough guy, but he was a video tech guy at SU. How, exactly, does that qualify him to be a PIO?

This is nothing more than a sickening waste of taxpayer money to provide Ireton with a campaign mouthpiece at taxpayer expense. Now he has gone and given it to a buddy.

King of Cronyism, that's your mayor. I am blessed to live outside the city limits.

So you don't have a credible response for this corruption and you have to drop the race card. LMAO. Can't match wits with you. LOL.

Racist? Don't see any black people in this article so that negates you worn out theory.

Homophobes? Did you forget that homosexuality is a mental disorder and that it was only taken out of the DSM because you libtards kept whining to the right people. It's still a mental disorder and always will be.

Can't wait till you Libtards come up with Criminalphobia and Pedophiliaphobia.

Chris Demone is a good decent person who has struggled with the medical expenses of a child. This may have caused financial hardships like foreclosure and failure to renew license.

He is still a good and decent person. Don't attack him personally.

Having said that, I disagree with the position, spending money on the position, and finally with awarding the job to someone who is known to be a personal friend of the Mayor.

That is simply a poor choice and decision.

What this town really needs instead of a PIO is a new mayor. I thought Dems were all for the little guy but downtown parking is still raping the few that venture down there for longer than two hours. Amazing.

It's called a conflict of interest and possibly an ethics violation.

It looks like Chris is wearing a loaded diaper?

8:16 Good and decent? Wrong, ask his wife. (or girlfriends at SU) Funny and friendly maybe but certainly not honest or trustworthy. (perfect democrat)
Qualified? Not even close.
The band he and Cook perform in speak to all the drinking and drug use.
Is it nepotism to hire someone you're having sex with?

So he doesn't have to follow the laws - what would have happened if he had had an accident when he didnt have a license? HMMMMM? No excuses for not following the laws!

He'll (CHRIS) take laurie's position on city council when she gets the county seat. It's all part of the guarantee by the slumlords...Hope to be proved wrong.
