First pics of the French face transplant lady:

[Squantos]

This isn't news. Hillary Clinton is getting a new face as we speak.

I'd have thought that two faced cunning runt would have tried to have one of em removed by now.......:o)

[cherry]

thankyou for that......it seems that all the negative freepers must be Miss America's or Mr. Atlas's the way they put down others just trying to look better.....

hope this young lady finds happiness and peace....

[Dr.Deth]

Me next! Me next!!

[dripp]

she lost her lips and nose completely,her lab mix dog tried to wake her after she took sleeping medicine and went bonkers when it couldnt wake her. The dog was put down afterwards, but she said she wasnt angry at the dog. I hope it works out for her, she couldnt go out in public the way she was.

[Dr.Deth]

The operation was a success!

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the new and improved Susan Estrich!

[HighWheeler]

Thanks.

That's a pretty remarkable pic when you think about it.

Kids already got eyebrows like Brezhnev, though.

[poindexter]

I dislike the Clinton's as much as the next person, but isn't a bit shallow and childish to make fun of their looks?

Good luck. I agree with you completely, and I've been trying (intermittantly) for years to get people to cease and desist with the insults based on appearance. I've gotten nowhere.

Post the same picture of a normal-looking woman on two threads. On one thread, identify the woman as a liberal and the "she so ugly" comments will arrive pronto. On the other thread, identify her as a conservative, and the "hubba hubba" posts will soon arrive.

Sigh.

[beaver fever]

Cute and happy too.

"They have the blood vessels hooked up, but what about the nerves? Can she move her transplanted lips and nose?"

Whatever she has is better than what is missing.

On the otherhand a new face is going to be hard to deal with.

"This isn't news. Hillary Clinton is getting a new face as we speak. Only difference is that this delicate operation isn't being performed by surgeons, it's being performed by the New York Times."

Good analogy. But, I'm not worried (The room is dark and I'm whistling).

[Alter Kaker]

After looking at that photo, some will still insist, regardless of the evidence, that human beings and gorillas do not share a common ancestor. Unreasonable people all of them.

[LibWhacker]

If I ever need an ass transplant, I don't want one as hideous and gross as that one, k?

[Itzlzha]

to to

Kinda says it all...

"Post the same picture of a normal-looking woman on two threads. On one thread, identify the woman as a liberal and the "she so ugly"..."

I've noticed the same thing. Kind of a political Rorschach test.

[Jeff Chandler]

I read that she will have to take a drug regimen for life to stop the immune response

Immuran, or something similar?

[martin_fierro]

I think Estrich has had major plastic surgery to her face recently. She's almost unrecognizable.

[csvset]

This incident reminded me of Grandmaster Flash's lyrics from "The Message"

They pushed that girl in front of a train
Took her to a doctor, sowed the arm on again
Stabbed that man, right in his heart
Gave him a transplant for a brand new start

[DoughtyOne]

Yeah, at least that!
