Percy isn't evil, I agree he's just power hungry.  He acted like he did 
because he was trying to move up in the MoM.  The Ministry refuses to 
believe Dumbledore and will not have anything to do with him.  Percy 
listens to the ministry so he separates himself from his family  
since they are in the Order.  I would expect that he returns to the 
family in the 6th book seeing as the MoM and the Order are on the 
same side now.
