Has Roose flayed anyone? I thought he was against it because he has told Ramsay on different occasions to cut it out (pun intended) or at least keep it quiet. He knows if they flay people that the north will rebel against them which is why he gets pissed when Ramsay flays someone. He did rape Ramsay's mother which is horrible. Outside of that I don't think he's that bad. Just trying to protect himself and his house.
I'm pretty damn confident he's flayed some people. Granted I don't think he makes a habit out of it in the same way Ramsay does, but I imagine he's probably flayed some thieves, rapists, and murderers in his day. Theon was pretty shocked he didn't flay anyone that had inhabited Winterfell.

Your comparison of him to Tywin was spot on for the most part. I've always said Roose is the north's Tywin Lannister. In the end, Roose wants peace but at the same time he wants to improve his family's standing politically. Betraying Robb after the war had been lost was his chance to do so. Ruthless? Sure. Horrible? Not so much. Robb brought the betrayal on himself
But I'd say Tywin is evil too. Yeah, he wants stability, but only if it's under his rule. Other than that, neither Tywin nor Roose really give a shite. Both characters are textbook Lawful Evil.

I don't know if you ever read the World of Ice and Fire but they go pretty in depth into Tywin's history. I got he wasn't an evil man. He was ruthless to his enemys and a hard man to like. Tywin was driven by his family's legacy and to keep the Name of Lannister a powerful one. Tywin's father was a joke of a lord, and would forgive people for laughing in his face and stealing lands out from under him. Tywin didn't like this and when he came of age he took care of all the enemies of house Lannister in the Wester lands. Also after his wife died it changed him completely. His entire drive in life is his family but its too a fault
As for Roose, he IS RAMSAY crazy but he has learned to control it. The Bolton's have always hated the starks and have always wanted to rule in the North, they have been the Starks little brother since the inception of the North. Roose is a Controlled Psychopath where his son is out of control.
