We can't trust anyone...

I was reading OOP last night and this page just jumped out at me. 
Because Hermione is saying so forcfully that to trust DD is a given. 
But, we (Harry) learns that Dumbledore makes mistakes too, and  his
ego can lead him astray. (ie; that DD is the *most* powerful wiz that
was.  And not telling Harry *very* important things)  Things that
should have been shared *long* before.

 quote from Ch. 25 end of page 554 to 555.

Harry is upset about Occlumency.  Saying it's not a bag of laughs. 
And Ron is saying...
Pg 554:
Maybe it's not Harry's fault he can't close his mind," said Ron
darkly, "What do you mean? said Hermione.  Well, maybe Snape isn't
really trying to help Harry..." Harry and Hermione starred at him. 
Ron looked darkly and meaningfully from one to the other.  "Maybe," he
said agin in a lower voice "he's actually trying to open Harry's mind
a bit wider...make it easier for You-know-"  "Shut up, Ron" said
hermione angrily.  "How many times have you suspected Snape, and when
have you *ever* been right?  Dumbledore trust him, he works for the
Order, that ought to be enough."  "He used to be a Death Eater," said
Ron stubbornly. "And we've never seen proof that he really swapped
sides..." 
"Dumbledore *trusts* him,"  Hermione repeated.  "And if we *CAN'T
TRUST DUMBLEDORE, WE CAN'T TRUST ANYONE."*

And this is my point.  Harry can't *trust* DD anymore (well not
fully).  Harry has learned a very hard lesson.  But, my concern is
that Harry is not going to share this lesson with R/H and I think this
might lead to; in the next book Snape sliping up, and prove Ron right.
 I think for all of Hermione's smarts, *she* like DD are blinded by
their abilities.  Snape is going to try and kill Hermione.  I think
this for various reasons...  but, the big one is that Hermione puts
too much trust in DD.

What do ya think?  A new off the wall theory, but, I wanted to see
what others thought of it.
Thanks Tj
