IMO, after re-reading the Shreiking Shack for the third time last
night, I have decided that who Snape has a "real" problem with is
Dumbledore. Here are the issues they do not ("seemingly") agree on:
1) what to do with Harry when he breaks the rules; 2) the hiring of
Lupin; and the 3) the acceptance of Sirius. Dumbledore's decisions
on these issues cause Snape a great deal of distress-they do not
however prevent him from backing up Dumbledore to Fudge on the
resurrection of Voldemort- showing Fudge the Mark on his arm, IMO,
was a bold move. In fact, it was at this point in the series that my
suspicions regarding Snape took a firm hold. He seems to disrespect
Dumbledore's handling of certain things-but apparently has little or
no problem with his role as leader(he apparently followed
Dumbledore's order at the end of GoF-whatever it was) IMO, this is
most curious-and leads to all kinds of speculation. I suppose this
is why I and others spend so much time trying to figure this guy out.
