Nope. River Song (aka, Melody Pond) is 100% human. But being conceived in the time vortex had some . . . interesting . . . side effects. :P

Time Lord DNA is a little more than a side effect. Plus, I think that's a contradiction in terms. If your DNA included Time Lord DNA, then it's not 100% human. Therefore, someone that does not have 100% human DNA is not 100% human. Oh and Socrates is still mortal.

According to earlier episodes of Dr Who, the Time Lords were a distinct non-human race (strangely, with two hearts), of whom the Doctor is the only survivor.
River was conceived of human parents (Amy and Rory) and is, thus, human. Because of being exposed to the time vortex at the time of her conception, she has some of the attributes of a Time Lord, including the ability to regenerate. (Though she apparently used all her remaining regenerative abilities in saving our good Doctors's life after having poisoned him in Hitler's office.)

It also occurs to me that the non Dr Who fans will now be convinced that we are all nuts. :)

[edit] I take your point about her DNA not being completely human, but define human. If you mean Homo Sapiens Sapiens, then she is not. But she is still human, just a new mutation of human.

{edit edit] Also, she totally rocks. :P

I think this explains why I consider River Song to be an enigma.
