Well, being a Legilimens doesn't mean that you know everything 
everyone thinks. And if he's not Ron, he didn't know that there was 
going to be a traitor at all.
It's not like he'd go through the heads of all the people in the 
Order on a daily basis to check for traitors. I tend to see 
legilimency as something rude, that Dumbledore wouldn't do unless he 
knew he had to. Voldemort, well, he's Voldemort.
