I posted this in answer for another post, but then the Sirius/Severus 
thread blown up, so... :)

What I asked was this:

Directly from POA, Page387, chap 21:

"What amazes me most is the behavior of the dementors...you've really
no idea what made them retreat, Snape?"

"No, Minister...by the time I come 'round they were heading back to
their positions at the entrances..."

There, he said he only saw them go away after he's awaked. Future!
Harry can testify, he came after the Patronus' departure ( And if we 
think to that, after his awakening, he had to free himself, see Ron, 
conjure the stretcher, and find where everyone is gone, it must take 
a moment.) 

Sirius and Hermione fainted before Harry.

Future!Harry saw the scene from afar, but he can't really said what 
he saw to Fudge.

So the only witness of the near-Kiss are Harry and the dementors.

But Page 421 (chap 22):

"And the dementors?" said Dumbledore."They'll be removed from the
school, I trust?"
"Oh yes, they'll have to go,"said Fudge, running his fingers
distractedly through his hair."Never dreamed they'd attempt to
administer the Kiss on an innocent boy..."


Nobody saw the dementor trying to Kiss Harry ( safe the other 
dementors, are they able to talk ?), every one was blacked out, so 
how Fudge could know that ?
