little respect in Harry after this. SO whats everyone's opinion in 
this??

No offence to you muffinman but
you quoted and questioned my very 
favorite passage! 

First off Dumbledore couldn't have saved Harry at the Ministry at the 
time of the possession if he wanted to! 
Harry has faced Voldemort face-to-face and heart-to-sub-human heart 
at the Ministry and yes `Harry' won. Dumbledore interceded but when 
it came down to it
it was Harry and his heart that saved Harry. 
This particular confrontation wrapped it all up for me. Harry, the 
one who has faced more in his life than most people have had a right 
to face, being confronted by a boisterous child who is a product of 
the evil that has caused him such pain, Yes! Harry has all the right 
to treat this child as the ignorant personification of a person that 
he is. 
Harry tired and weary of the battle, confronted by the wimp son of 
Lucius whom has always helped in the destruction of his own demise, 
faced with this obnoxious adversary, I would expect nothing less than 
the statement he had offered.
