...at least it wasn't a gay divorce:

Rove, wife, divorce after 24-year marriage

Karl Rove, the Republican strategist who served as a top aide to former president George W. Bush, and his wife of 24 years have divorced.

A spokeswoman said Tuesday that Rove and his wife, Darby, were granted a divorce last week.

The couple "came to the decision mutually and amicably and they maintain a close relationship and a strong friendship," said family spokeswoman Dana Perino in a statement. "There will be no further comment and the family requests that its privacy be respected."

Just imagine if it were as illegal for Karl Rove to divorce as he wants it to be for gay and lesbian couples to marry.
