like HE fought Voldie, when really when faced with the dark lord he 
froze up and had to be saved by Dumbledore! I've always hated the 
fact that Harry said this, im not sure why, but ive kind of lost a 
little respect in Harry after this. SO whats everyone's opinion in 
this??

Alla:

Huh? Could you explain please "had to be saved by Dumbledore"/ Sure, 
Harry is not ready to completely win over Voldie yet, but he saved 
himself when Voldemort possesed him.

"It is the powerheld within that room that you possess in such 
quantities and which Voldemort has not at all. The power took you to 
save Sirius tonight. That power also saved you from possession by 
Voldemort, because he could not bear to reside ina body so full of 
the force he detest. In the end, it mattered not that you could nto 
close your mind. It was your heart that saved you" - OOP, paperback, 
p.844.

Harry screwed up enough that night, but he did not take credit for 
what he did not do.
