>> Callista and Newt are both practicing Catholics united in Catholic matrimony. They are together a devoted couple to one another and to the Church. <<

Tony and Cherie Blair could make a similar claim. He formally converted to his wife's faith after leaving the Prime Minister's office, and by all accounts attends Mass weekly with his wife and children and his marriage is valid and recognized by Catholic canon law, and Tony Blair says he's a proud and faithful practicing Catholic.

Interesting thing, though, "practicing Catholic" Tony Blair has not changed his support for abortion or gay marriage.

I didn’t say the Gingrichs’ were a “practicing Catholic” pair. I said they are devoted to the Catholic Church as they are to their marriage, and it shows on both counts.

Never mind the Blairs. They have nothing in common with the Gingrichs’ and are clearly out of bounds with the Church, as in “automatically self-excommunicated” for dedicating absurd agreement with those two atrocious actions. Cafeteria Catholics are not even “practicing” Catholics, in rebellion to the faith.
