How/Why did he end up in Wicomico County Maryland?
Sounds like a winner to me.
Jim Ireton go get a job with Kathy griffin at McDONULDS LOL.
Jim jim jim
There is a opening for head pooper scooper for the river you LOVE so much.
10:51. Learn how to spell McDonalds!!!
What was Ireton's GED Major?
Ruh-OH! Sure hope Jimmie has his classroom assignment nailed down for September..
Teens.
Thanks jim now go back to peeing in the ladie bathroom at Mojos.
College degrees are overrated and worthless. We need a bornhere in the position.
Nice resume.
It blows the other guy's out of the water. Too bad that the election is going to be won like a high school popularity contest. Guess who might well be both King and Queen.
Why Wicomico County? Bo grew up here; went to school here; moved here when he was in grade school. He has friends and family here. And, there is no better place to live and raise a family.
I believe he grew up here and has family in the area.
I think this area has had enough of Mr. Ireton.
11:42. Right behind you!!!
I have lived in Salisbury since 1992. The first year I lived here I met Jim Ireton at a gathering of gay friends. I was introduced to him and we struck up a small talk conversation. He immediately turned the conversation to politics. He didn't realize I was a conservative republican. He started running his mouth about his sexual exploits with past Congressman Tom McMillen. McMillen and I traveled in the same social circles. Tom was even dating a very good friend of mine at the time. I questioned his truthfulness.....or lack there of. I knew right then and there this guy couldn't be trusted and I walked away from him. As years went on and we would run into each other he did what ever he could to avoid me. I could go on and on about his exploits both here in Salisbury and Rehoboth. Meanwhile he's teaching at a catholic school. Then when he was running for mayor he knocked on my door asking for my support. I asked him if he remembered who I was? He said no. I told him to put on his beer goggles and look closer. I reminded him of our first meeting, his lies about Congressman McMillen, and his exploits . (which he can deny all he wants but I was there and have first hand knowledge ) He of course denied all of it. I'm not going to drag all his trash out into the public arena. But the bottom line is the guy is a lier. How anyone could vote for a lier to work in our court system is beyond me.
And doesn't shop at Target.
Now that "Dr. Freddy" is gone, Ireton's days in the school system are numbered, so he's looking for greener pastures.
This Ireton cat would be better off just getting a job to support himself and habits. Hasn't done well living off the government trough. Just not suited for the public eye.
Oh but wait with Jackie Wellfonder helping him he is sure to get the job. She is throwing her full weight behind Liarton. They were both boozing it up at the Brick Room yesterday and she was all stickered up with Liarton! He can not make up his mind what he wants to do but I have seen enough of him to last a life time.
Jim has no experience for this job. And Bo McAllister does. Jimmy is running for the money. Plain and simple. He is getting older and realizing he isn't making much of himself after leaving being Mayor. He is running for the third political position in three years. That's outrageous.
In larger areas Jimmy would be blown out of the water. I do think the area is starting to realize that we've had enuf.
8/23-1030 if you think you have you be an attorney to file stuff sure vote for Bo but you really don't. This is a glorified position with a great pay grade. But any Business manager could do it and I hope we see that from the Republicans and not just a retiree to hold the seat taking retirement pay and a 6 figure salary. I hear that another state employee already claiming a 6 figure salary will come out and run. Collecting a state retirement and then a 6 fig salary on top of that? Trust me That is abuse too of the system and not very Conservative. But who ever get the spot I would love to see an average joe spank Ireton's tail! Unfortunately Bo doesn't have the name recognition so it will be a battle to get Liarton out.
