Tennessee Log Cabin Republicans mock defeat of “sappy” and “gay” resolution honoring country singer TJ Osborne
defeat of a resolution in the Tennessee legislature honoring country music singer TJ Osborne, of the group Brothers Osborne, after he recently came out as gay.“Gay media is fainting with shock like Nathan Lane in The Bird Cage to discover that the Tennessee House did not fall over themselves to immediately pass SJR0609, honoring TJ Osborne of Brothers Osborne for coming out as gay. Zut alors! Someone bring the smelling salts,” the group wrote in a campy, cringe-inducing yet tongue-in-cheek press release.“Just so we’re clear: this wasn’t a resolution honoring Osborne’s career and gifts which got voted down because he is gay. It was a resolution honoring him for just…being gay,” the email reads.
