Biden in Brussels

Jonah Goldberg notices Vice President Biden's astonishing remarks to the European Parliament in Brussels:

As you probably know, some American politicians and American journalists refer to Washington, D.C., as the 'capital of the free world.' But it seems to me that this great city, which boasts 1,000 years of history and which serves as the capital of Belgium, the home of the European Union and the headquarters for NATO, this city has its own legitimate claim to that title.

Mr. Goldberg points out that if Mr. Biden were improvising, that'd be one thing, but these were prepared remarks.
