I have always thought that the main reason that Snape is the way he is
towards both Harry and Neville is because of his position.  It is well know
that he was/is a DE (well by the DE's themselves anyways). Draco is in his
class and house at the sametime that BOTH Harry and Neville are in his
class.  This puts Snape in a very sticky situation.  He does not want to
start any suspicous behaviour infront of Malfoy Jr.  If he can keep Malfoy
Sr happy that he is still with the DE's he will be more help to DD and the
Order.  

LV had know about most of the Prophecy so the DE's probably knew most of the
prophecy as well.  This would put both Neville and Harry in bad with the
DE's.  Of course Harry is alittle worse off since it was he who vanquished
LV the first time.  

Snape seems to always take "appropriate" belittling of Harry and Neville.
He is mean and rude but does not seem to cross the line to outright abuse.
I have always thought that Snape has felt sorry for the lives he helped to
create for both Neville and Harry and in his round about way is trying to
help them.  By acting the way he does he is keeping the DE's happy and
helping to solidify his position to help DD.

Gina: I agree here, but would like to add that Snape probably did not want
Harry rattling off what he saw about Snape either.
