GLAAD is due a pat on its back today for uncovering a 1994 video showing GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney calling on the Boy Scouts of America to end its discrimination of LGBT people. 

With ousted Ohio den leader Jennifer Tyrrell in mind, GLAAD has added plenty of fuel to the fire with one dramatic press release

"I believe that the Boy Scouts of America does a wonderful service for this country," Romney says in the 1994 video. "I support the right of the Boy Scouts of America to decide what it wants to do on that issue. I feel that all people should be able to participate in the Boy Scouts regardless of their sexual orientation."

Romney served as a Boy Scouts of America Executive Board member for nearly a decade.

Will the Boy Scouts of America listen to 1994 Romney?
