Or maybe it's not because Snape isn't qualified for the DADA 
position, but that there is no one else as qualified for the Potions 
Master position. There seems to be an abundance of people quailified 
enough to teach DADA, (and they don't even have to be 
qualified...Lockhart certainly wasn't, and I'm sure Dumbledore saw 
through him from the first) but how many people could teach Potions 
considering it seems to be one of the hardest magical arts to master? 
No, I think Dumbledore keeps Snape where he is just because he's so 
darned good at it!
