Juli: Do you really think that Fudge cares even a bit
about the inmates in Azkaban? No was Jose, if it were
up to him, IMO, he would allow the Dementors to kiss
them all.

> Heh heh.  You're being too naive, Chris. ;-)  The
> reason Fudge gave the newspaper to Sirius was
because it showed a photo of the Weasley family on the
front... a photo which included Scabbers the rat... a
being whom Fudge (ahem, make that ESE!Fudge) had
reason to know Sirius Black would recognize.  Fudge
gave Sirius the newspaper to get the wheels turning
["He's at Hogwarts!"].  Didn't you ever wonder why
Sirius was able to escape so easily?  Perhaps one
ESE!Fudge gave a  little instruction to the Dementors,
had them back off a wee bit to  make it easier?

Juli: I like your idea Susan, no-one can be that
useless, he's just way too incompetent not to be ESE,
or can he? But if he is ESE, then why does DD used to
trust him (at least before GoF)? I may sound a lot
like Hermione but if we can't trust him, who can we
trust? I believe DD up to his little toe, and I
believe that if he thinks someone's *good*, an idiot
nevertheless, but *good*, then he must be good. (Am I
also being too naive Susan?). OTOH, every one of his
actions in OoP would seem to me that he was ESE, so
what if he turned Evil after LV returned?
