I enjoyed this too...who really wrote it? Severus Snape? No, it's  
too snide even for him. More like Draco Malfoy. It sounds like 
something cooked by comittee at a Slytherin house meeting: 

"Simple: He's a glory hog who unfairly receives credit for the 
accomplishments of others and who skates through school by taking 
advantage of his inherited wealth and his establishment connections. 
Harry Potter is no braver than his best friend, Ron Weasley, just 
richer and better-connected. Harry's other good friend, Hermione 
Granger, is smarter and a better student. The one thing Harry excels 
at is the sport of Quidditch, and his pampered-jock status allows him 
to slide in his studies, as long as he brings the school glory on the 
playing field."  

My goodness! I think we need to scratch a little at this guy's 
surface I'm sure we'd find a green and silver heart beating it's 
Slytherin Anti-Potter mantra!
