WITH A STRAIGHT FACE --- Former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack is drawing some flak for claiming Tuesday that Hillary Clinton was the "face" of the Clinton administration on foreign affairs.

Vilsack was defending Clinton's experience on MSNBC when he said, "there's no question she was the face of the administration on foreign affairs."

A handful of reporters have poked at it, too.

"Really?" questioned the Washington Post.

MSNBC's First Read blog says it did a "double take."

Asked to explain the remark Wednesday, Mark Daley, a Clinton spokesman said: "On over 80 occasions Sen. Clinton represented the White House in meetings with foreign leaders, including her famous speech in Beijing where she declared women?s rights are human rights."
