Phoenixgod2000: Course it is. The words did indeed pass by the lips of 
Albus Dumbledore, but that does mean they are true :) It is also canon 
that DD isn't perfect and Snape is a really good liar.

Harry is pretty darn sure that Snape is Eeeevvvillll too. We are all 
pretty sure about out interpretation of the greasy git. That's part of 
reason I haven't been posting anything lately. I just don't have that 
much to say anymore. The story keeps narrowing and all the fun stuff I 
like to argue about (Snape being a good/bad teacher, the lack of merits 
to Ginny W., Dumbledore doing right by Harry) just don't matter 
anymore. Snape is a murderer, his teaching methods are meaningless now, 
Ginny is apparently Harry's soul mate-ugh!!!, and DD is dead. All that 
is left is the remaining plot points and that is stuff we just aren't 
ever goin to be able to figure out.

anyway, my two cents

a kinda down semi-divine phoenix
