Rove is not merely a hypocrite. He's a thug.

David Corn: "Rove: Not Just a Hypocrite, a Thug....And Explaining Durbin's Unnecessary Apology"
...
in an interview on Hardball on Tuesday, Rove said the Senate Democrats opposing the John Bolton nomination are "putting their commitment to politics above their commitment to doing what's right for the country." That is, he was impugning their motives, not answering their arguments.

That made him a hypocrite. But it gets worse. Yesterday, Rove spoke at a Conservative Party fundraiser in New York City and said,

Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 in the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers,
...
Rove, not satisfied with lying about liberals, also claimed that US troops overseas now faced greater risk because of the remarks of Senator Dick Durbin, who last week said interrogation practices at Guantanamo were befitting of "Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime--Pol Pot or others." Rove huffed,
...
Durbin did nothing other than speak frankly about FBI reports that noted that interrogators at Guantanamo were using "torture techniques" and that described horrific conditions at the camp. Anyone who reads Durbin's full statement would see he was motivated by a deep concern about the conduct of interrogations at Gitmo and the potential harm to US national security these practices could cause.
...
Soon after that, Durbin decided to issue an apology. ... Once they had done that, Rove still found it useful to kick Durbin further and accuse him of harboring anti-US motives and engaging in traitorous conduct. Rove is not merely a hypocrite. He's a thug.
