I saw that as a multilayered statement. As Moody, I believe it was meant to
be an expression of barely-veiled antagonism that others were supposed to
perceive as arising from Moody's intense hatred of the Death Eaters.
Obviously, this is not too difficult for Crouch Jr. to act out, as he
certainly is disgusted by Malfoy's rejection of Voldemort after his
downfall, and in that vein, Snape as well. Hmm ... going back to the Snape
as a Death Eater spy topic ... it would seem that Snape's betrayal is not
secret. Or maybe he had a double-agent role, as someone suggested earlier,
that only Voldemort and a select few knew about. 

Ai ... it is late and this is making my head hurt =P.
