Neither; a Hypocrite is some one who says one thing and does another.

A hypocrite is someone who criticises someone or something for a particular quality but posesses that quality themselves/supports something that posseses that quality.
DilusionL put it far more simply.

You can't claim to be always right without implying that others are wrong .However to say that every one is wrong doesn't imply that you are right (Say,if you don't express your view,either way).For an Hypocrite,It's his own view what's important and not what others think about it or ]per se their own views.

Neither. It is someone who advocates doing/not doing something, and then goes and does what they are saying you should/shouldnt do.
It would be like the president of MADD (mothers against drunk driving) getting a DUI.

A hypocrite is neither. He/she is one that says one thing to your face, then says another to your friends face.
They are liars, simple and factual.

It is one who claims to believe one thing and does the opposite.
