Iretongate



Back in June of 2012 we published the article below referencing an alleged phone spoof that involved Mayor Jim Ireton's phone number. Their claim was that someone had spoofed me and two Editors from the Daily Times were fired for their involvement. 


Did Mayor Jim Ireton Make The Call, You Decide?
Today, Salisbury News has learned that one of the former employees of the Daily Times, (Sarah Lake) made the "short list" of those people being interviewed to replace Jesse, (the Mayors secretary) and actually interviewed for the job. 


Sarah did not get the job in the end but I thought each and every one of you might be interested in just who made it to the final 6 people who were actually interviewed for the job.

I applied for that job and never received a call back. This really pisses me off.

Well I hope who ever it is doesn't get to comfortable because they are not going to be there very long.

A friend told me he hired a person that either is or was a teacher. I hope she does well, God knows this city needs all the good help it can get!

Scents? I smell a common thread with commenters.

Did Teresa Gardner make the final six?

Joe, I can't wait for you to be elected mayor. We need someone like you.

I have a friend who works maintenance in the GOB and he said that Liar-ton had an audio recording system installed in his office. What could he possibly need with something like that?

I'm glad she didn't get the job either, but that proof that Jim Ireton uses people and then turns on them. He only let her interview to make her think they were still friends. If I was Sarah Lake I would go on an all out attack on Ireton. She should try to get her job back at the Daily Times and expose the corrupt criminal Ireton truly is.

I can't believe she had the nerve to even apply.

Ireton is a cheap political hack.

She might not have got the job, but how did she get so far to be in the final six? Did Ireton have a say in that? Was that HR's call? Anyone who moved her into that final group should be fired.

No honor.

Can you imagine if she would have gotten the position....She would have been Joe's secretary in just a few months. Now that would have been funny!

Expose the truth, Sara. It shall set you free.

You ask how she got so far in the final six.

Are you sure there were six?

Jim Ireton did with Sarah Lake what he did with numerous others the were his so called friends and supporters. He turned his back on them. There were several friends and supporters who Jim were supposed to bring on board with him as a team and he seemed to forget that. There were several department heads that were going to be replaced with his people. There was the City Solicitor who was going to be replaced with his people. Finally the City Council did the right thing and brought in a much better City Solicitor. The only department head position he fought for was his buddy from the Democrat Central Committee. He then screwed over Ivan Barkley on that top position and then we got stuck with an outsider. Then the fire department we got stuck with another outsider who wasn't qualified to be a fireman and he was ran out. Now we are stuck with someone who wasn't wanted then and who isn't wanted now. We had a qualified public works director in house and Ireton brought in another unqualified outsider to run public works. Ireton promised to get rid of John Pick and Lore Chambers and we are still stuck with them who are the part of the reason the city is running down under their watch. What does Ireton do? He rewards Lore Chambers with time off and pays for here to get a PhD at UMES and now she demands to be referred to as Dr. Chambers. He has also proposed and given her several undeserved pay raises.

The only reason Jim Ireton got elected is because he rode in on the coattails of Debbie Campbell. Councilwoman Campbell got more votes in District 2 than Jim Ireton got in the entire city.

Jim you turned on your friends and you have worn out your welcome in this city. Please go away and leave us alone.

Wasn't Rick Hoppes and Bill Gordy campaigning against Ireton for Gary Comegys? I remember reading they were part of that blog that posted anti-gay comments about Mr. Ireton. Weren't they the ones that exposed Mr. Ireton's run in with the law on that beach in Delaware? Bill Gordy is very connected in Delaware so it makes sense to me.

The story on the "I'm not a Republican bumper sticker is:

Ireton used to be president of the Wicomico County Democrats Club. He used to service on the Democratic Central Committee at one time.

The picture was right before he got elected and was still the head of the club. It's also how Jim treats anyone who disagrees with him.

Yes that is a fact. Now Mr. Ireton is in bed with him and rewarding him with a department head position. Just like Lore Chambers, I mean Dr. Chambers, was campaigning for Comegys and now she is rewarded with an all expense paid PhD and several massive pay raises. Where is the logic? Those individuals should have been kicked to the curb after Ireton was sworn in.
