But Harry told Dumbledore that Lucius Malfoy was present at the circle of 
Death Eaters in GoF.  What kind of idiot would DD have to be to then go 
and hire Malfoy's wife as a professor and give her free run of the school?  
I think he'd hire Fleur first, and Fleur is profoundly unqualified for the
