A Snape-lover, no doubt.  Sorry, couldn't resist that one.  You are 
quite right that there is a very large amount of LALALA-ing going 
on, but it is scarcely confined to one side of the issue.  The 
extreme effort being expended to explain that Snape didn't REALLY 
kill Dumbledore, doesn't REALLY hate Harry, etc., often amounts to a 
vast cacaphony of denial.  But that is human nature, and won't stop 
on any side of the question.

But, perhaps it does give us an insight into many characters in the 
Potter series.  Snape -- "I don't here nothin' bout no stinkin' DADA 
curse, LALALALA,"; Hermione -- "Just trust Dumbledore, LALALALALA,"; 
Lupin -- "Just trust Dumbledore, LALALALALALA,"; Dumbledore --
 "Everybody repeat after me, I trust Severus Snape, 
LALALALALALALA,"; Voldemort -- "I look good in black, 
LALALALALALALA."
