Lee: 

Or he does not answer back because as he know as much as The Death eaters 
love (if that's what you can call it) and follow Voldy and all important 
fear him, then he will not answer back. As we have seen and they all know, 
to talk back could mean death. Which is why they never raise the issue of 
him being a half blood despite believing that all should be pure bloods.
