Clinton did the same thing in an African Catholic church a few years ago.

"Clinton did the same thing in an African Catholic church a few years ago."

That's WHY he's issuing this declaration. It is NOT new, but as was stated here, it has ALWAYS been the law of the Church.

Better late than never - stopping the "for publicity" communion by non-believers.

Not the same thing at all. The Eucharist is for a community of believers, and perhaps Mr. Blair considers himself to be a part of that community, even if he has yet to declare his conversion publicly. Mr. Clinton, on the other hand, is a piece of manure.
