YES!!! Fudge is Evil!!!
Cornnelius Fudge is my best candidate for He-Who-Said-(words to the 
effect)"Stand back you silly girl"-That-Night-at-Godric's-Hollow. I 
think he wanted to make a name for himself in the wizarding world by 
making peace with Voldemort; to do so, he handed them the Potters. I 
think Wormtail 'ratted' to Fudge, not Voldemort, and Fudge is 
actually the one who revealed the Potter's location. I don't think he 
thought Voldemort would kill the family, maybe Voldemort told him he 
just wanted to talk to the Potters and Fudge wanted so badly to look 
like a peacemaker to the wizarding world that he bought into it. He 
was probably horrified at what happened, but then had to take Sirius 
out to maintain the public's perception of events. Maybe he was after 
Peter too, and that's partially why Peter disappeared. He had to have 
Sirius sent to Azkaban without a trial and he was so anxious to have 
the Kiss administered at Hogwarts to keep the truth from being told. 
Perhaps he thinks Sirius told Harry too much and that's why he wasn't 
fussy if the Dementors Kissed him as well.
