I still think Fudge may be a death eater however,IF he is not, then I 
still say that he AND Umbridge knew full well how their actions would 
aid Voldemort.  And they both ARE evil.  I am sorry but I cannot see 
where their actions were not evil just self serving.  They put a lot 
of people in pain and serious danger.  We shall see when the next 
book comes out.  OOOh I can't wait....even if I am wrong it will 
still be fun!
