Del replies :
I don't want to nitpick, but Aurors are most definitely NOT "idiot 
goons"! If I remember well, one needs at least 5 NEWTs to apply for 
the job, then there's a thorough screening test, and then 3 years of 
additional studies and training. No idiot goon could ever get 
through all of that.

There are also Aurors that work for for DD and the Order.  But any time that you need 4 or 5 people to take out MM and Hagrid you are not dealing with the smartest of characters.  To be a good Auror you need both the book smarts and "street" smarts.  There is only so much that studying and books can teach you.  Look at Hermione is PS, she is not sure how to start a fire in the chamber, yet she can repeat every word and line from any book.  It is all about finding balance between the books and common sense that makes you not an idiot!!  

If you also look at how good DJU feels that she is as well as Draco....they both need the "goon" strenght to keep them safe.  You don't see the true powerful wizards using goons to fight there battles.  Does it not seem stange the LV is very much like Draco and DJU.  He is very seldom doing his own bidding. He seems to use his messengers and goons to take care of things.
