aikiva now:

I'd just like to point out that Snape doesn't need to have affinity
towards the Potters even 
though he is on the 'good' side. Frankly, he has had a rough life
growing up in Hogwarts 
taunted by his fellow classmates. There's no reason for him to stop
hating the Potters 
despite having been saved by James under various circumstances.
Actually, according to 
Dumbledore, it's because of these events that caused Snape to feel
indebted to the Potters, 
leading to his increased hatred for them.

Snape might hate the Potters, but he does not hate Dumbledore. In
fact, I feel he cares so 
much for Draco that he is even willing to accomplish what Draco
cannot do. Both 
Dumbledore and Snape wants Draco to remain innocent--and even if
Snape has to 
sacrifice himself to do it, he will.

The hatred on Snape's face--I took it to mean the hate Snape has at
the moment for 
Voldemort and not Dumbledore. Or--it might be the hatred he has for
himself, because he 
has no other way out of this predicament.
