"-it was implied that 
McGonagall took care of Marietta after DD flew away 'with style'.
I strongly believe that Madam Pomfrey just didn't want to fix 
Marietta's face, same as Flitwick and McGonagall didn't want to fix 
the swamp, or put out the twins fire crackers... they were sort 
of 'boycotting' the new regime and its supporters, LOL. <<snip>>Do you 
think that McGonagall would not have asked Harry (or Hermione) what 
was that jinx about if she had 'wanted' to get Marietta better?"


DuffyPoo:
That makes Madam Pomfrey and Professor McGonagall two very nasty pieces of work, IMO.   Much like DD if he knew Sirius was innocent but left him to rot in Azkaban anyway.  

This is not the same as Flitwick and McGonagall's response to Umbridge, as leaving the swamp and not extinguishing firecrackers hurt no one...except perhaps Umbridge's pride, which was the point.  "Thank you so much, Professor!" said Professor Flitwick in his squeaky little voice. "I could have got rid of the sparkles myself, of course, but I wasn't sure whether or not I had the *authority.*"  If Umbridge wanted to micro-manage the school, the teachers were giving her their full co-operation..
