That woman is among the scariest things I have ever seen. She and Janet Reno should get on one of those "extreme makeover" shows.

Many times, the lines and facial structure of an older person give clues as to the disposition they carried through life. You'll see them make some certain facial expression and all the lines and such line up like pieces of a puzzle, and you know it was that look, that disposition, that produced their face over time.
I'm serious in saying Helen Thomas is probably the single ugliest woman I've ever seen. Her face to me is a saddening embodiment of bitterness and spite, and I suspect it is indeed a portrait of the life she's lived, misery on display.
