Republican Humor

Apex Mayor Keith Weatherly responded Tuesday to news that a man was keeping a flock of sheep in his downtown Apex house with a lot of jokes.

He even appeared on WRAL-FM's "Bill and Sheri in the Morning" show to face "b-a-a-a-h"'s and a bunch of cracks.

He responded with what he said was a lighthearted jab at a neighboring town: "Very frankly, you might expect this sort of thing in Holly Springs, but ... it was a surprise to us in Apex."

That didn't play well in Holly Springs.

"Well, you know, he's a jerk," said Holly Springs Mayor Dick Sears Wednesday morning.

How can they joke around like that when there's an occupation going on??
