Archbishop of Washington Wilton Cardinal Gregory described President Joe Biden as a 'cafeteria Catholic,' on Sunday, criticizing him for picking and choosing what parts of the Catholic faith he felt like practicing and ignoring other Church teachings.

The Archbishop commented on Biden's faith during an appearance on CBS's Face the Nation aired Sunday with host Ed O'Keefe.
