Former POW Jessica Lynch became a mother on Friday, Jan. 19, 2007, giving birth to a girl whom she named in honor of a fallen comrade. Dakota Ann Robinson was delivered by Caesarean section at a local hospital at 5:10 p.m. The infant weighed 7 pounds, 10 ounces, said Lynch's publicist, Aly Goodwin Gregg.

It would be a nicer story if she and her boyfriend got married.

[almcbean]

Does anybody get married anymore?

[lightman]

My first thought also.

[Man50D]

Does anybody get married anymore?

Are you kidding me? That would mean accepting responsibility and commitment! By staying single they can leave each other at anytime without feeling guilty or going through a messy and costly divorce. ;o)

[Dog Gone]

I think it's very fitting that she named her child after her fallen comrade. I think they renamed a mountain in Arizona after Dakota as well.

She gave her daughter her boyfriend's last name. So what's he been doing the last nine months? The article doesn't bother to ask.

She has a publicist????

[Professional Engineer]

Doesn't everyone?

She earned a pretty penny from her book a few years back. I'm sure it's easily into the six-figures. If she got married and divorced, she'd likely be the big [financial] loser.

[Dog Gone]

Were both arms amputated and replaced with scary stuff, or how do you explain the photo you posted?

The more you look at her arms and hands, the scarier it gets.

This baby girl is probably destined for a future of grubbing about for food and wondering when her mother will return home. No father in the home, no future to look forward to.

Mazeltov!!!!

[NormsRevenge]

she has had a fair amount of reconstructive surgery is about all I might attribute the appearance to. she sustained some pretty severe injuries.

[alisasny]

And marriage and commitment mean what anymore?

You are all such hypocrites

[Tx Angel]

What an assinine post. Your mother must be so proud.

[Doctor Raoul]

The infant weighed 7 pounds, 10 ounces, said Lynch's publicist, Aly Goodwin Gregg.

Publicist?

Guess at the end of the term there will be a press conference to release her grades?

[Rembrandt]

"What an assinine post. Your mother must be so proud."

Are you still a teenager? Have you experienced any adulthood, apparently not.

Congratulations to her!

[Doctor Raoul]

I'd guess she posed with any scars on her arms away from the camera, or the resolution of the camera can't pick them up.
