I agree.  Fudge is clueless, not sadistic.  I really think the opening 
chapter of HBP shows just how clueless Fudge is.  Fudge was in denial 
about LV's return in GoF and then he made bad choices in OOtP (IMO).  
I think he was so worried about/threatened by DD that he forgot who he 
was and what his job was.  I don't think his ambition was to run MoM 
flawlessly (or even well), I think it was to show up DD thus making 
himself look good.  I find this hilarious because DD is so humble.  I 
hate Fudge, not because he is cruel but because he is incompetent.
