Now me:

I'm a little new, and I'm not sure if this has already been said, but if 
Dumbledore has testified to the fact that Snape was acting as a double agent 
in a public forum, wouldn't most of the adults in the WW know that about 
him?  How would Lucius, who obviously knows the inner-workings of the 
Ministry, not be privy to this information about Snape?

Is there any canon referencing the relationship between Snape and Lucius 
other than from Draco's mouth?  I can't recall a scene in which these two 
men appear together.  Maybe Draco telling Snape that his father would 
appoint him headmaster was just a student trying to suck up to his favorite 
teacher.

I'm really looking forward to hearing some thoughts on this...

Mike
